For the Tongariro Hiking Tour we stay in a 3-star hikers and skiers lodge set spectacularly against Mt Ruapehu, in the heart of the National Park. Accommodation is based on twin share. If you’re travelling solo but happy to share a room, we’ll match you up with another solo walker of the same gender. If you’d prefer a room to yourself, single supplement is available for an additional fee.

Rooms are equipped with heating, refrigerators, hair dryers, tea and coffee making facilities and televisions. There is no air-conditioning for cooling, but plenty of opening windows. Beds are made up with fresh linens and a plentiful supply of bath towels.

The beautiful dining and lounge area is the perfect place for aperitifs with your small group of hikers after an exhilarating day outdoors. We share our meals in the cosy, spacious lodge dining room. There is an open-air hot tub to soak those tired muscles, bookings may be required in advance.
