Had both days awesome weather. Two long but amazing days. The crossing section is for me the best walk so far.

I loved this track. Most of the tramping we have done so far in New Zealand has been through beautiful plush rain forests. This was a nice contrast, with really open stark landscapes when viewed from afar, but bursting with color and life close up. The crossing was my favorite day view-wise, not just becuase of the alpine but the awesome colors as we descended east of the pass.

2 Days - started at Whakapapa and went counter clockwise. Avg 28 km/day. Spent night at Oturere hut - great hut close to edge of drop with huge waterfall closeby and great views of the volcano. Second day hike up to Ngaruhoe and down and back around out to car parked at Whakapapa. Last ~2hrs were in dark with rain that turned to snow. Amazing 2 days.

Nothing beats ending a three day walk with a buffet lunch at the Chateau (we certainly ate our money's worth)

We took three days. The last day was very wet and cold walking from Waihohonu to Whakapapa

My wife and I walked this back in 2011. Leaving the hordes doing the crossing behind us, we extended the northern circuit by walking the around the mountain track which we loved.
