Description
Find your own journey. Dedicate a day in your itinerary to the mountains, lakes, and coast. Best Day Walks New Zealand collects 60 hiking opportunities ranging from a few hours’ detour to full days out, making it easier to find a walk that fits the rest of your holiday.
Experiences and content. The book features maps and route descriptions for the walks, with information to help you assess distance, terrain, and difficulty. The publisher highlights views of mountains and alpine lakes, wild beaches, and areas with rich birdlife. The selection provides ideas for getting closer to the landscape without the entire trip needing to be a continuous long-distance trek on foot.
Who is this book suitable for? Choose this when day trips are to have a clear place in your New Zealand journey. It is suitable both for preparation at home and when you wish to compare a shorter walk with a more extensive alternative in the same area.
From inspiration to your own plan. Use the guide before departure to select experiences you truly desire, and see them in context with the rest of the trip. A journey with fewer stops can provide more time to get to know each location. Browse through it with your travel companions, compare ideas, and find a balance between what you want to achieve and what you want to have time to experience.
A physical book is also excellent to return to during the planning process. Bring it out when the next stage is to be discussed, rediscover an idea you have noted, and let the plan evolve as you become better acquainted with the possibilities.
