$3.30 Emerald Lakes, Tongariro Crossing
Best attempted between late October and April, the Tongariro Northern Circuit Track takes walkers through herbfields, forests and desert plateaux. The Emerald Lakes, whose vivid blues and greens can be partly attributed to dissolved minerals, are found near the summit of Mount Tongariro.

The Routeburn Track takes walkers past the spectacular Southern Alps/ Kā Tiritiri o te Moana and offers incredible views of awe-inspiring mountains and valleys. Easily accessible from Queenstown, the track can be completed in three days or visited for day walks.
$5.30 Te Urewera, Lake Waikaremoana
Te Urewera is the home of the Tūhoe people, and is recognised by New Zealand law as a living person. It encompasses the largest area of native forest remaining in the North Island and is home to nearly all species of New Zealand’s native birds.
$6.90 Abel Tasman National Park
Located at the top of the South Island, New Zealand’s smallest national park offers an idyllic coastal walk, past golden beaches and recovering native forest. Walkers can choose to stay in Department of Conservation huts, live it up in luxurious lodges, or sleep under the stars.
