Since there will be a rock climbing trip and possible a mountain biking trip baseed from the Lodge, just want to see whether anyone is interested in doing a day trip of Tongariro Crossing via Mt Ngauruhoe. We will probably stay at the lodge and start the walk either 6am or 7am on saturday morning 5/04 and relax on sunday before heading back to Wellington. The walk is probably a medium/ challenging grade, and will take 9-10 hours.
Information about the walk can be found on this website:
If anyone is keen please send me an email and I will organise something. Please note that if weather forecast for the area is not good, we will not go up to the Lodge at all.
