If time is limited or you are unable to spend the whole day walking, join us on a half day tour, perfect for families and travellers of all ages and fitness levels. Start on the Tongariro Crossing track and experience some of its splendour as you walk amongst the volcanoes up to the Soda Springs waterfall.
Mt. Ngauruhoe’s cold water springs create a small oasis of lush yellow mountain buttercups and white foxgloves, and the pure Soda Springs allows us to refill our water bottles with Tongariro pure spring water, whilst having morning tea.
Upgrades
Whilst on this tour and in reaching Soda Springs, you can decide to upgrade to a
full day tour at an additional cost (difference between full day and half day tour cost). You must have the fitness and lunch and adequate water, to upgrade.
