Tongariro Crossing Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"This is the best place to make your base, if you’re planning a “crossing”. Between the impeccably clean newly constructed cabin suites, the continental breakfast with delicious house fresh baked bread to warm at your convenience, in your fully stocked kitchen. To the real fresh ground beans to brew in your cabins French press! Everything you need, is provided, to head out early at your own pace.
Alas, we were rained out, as a big storm swept through the area, and we had to satisfy ourselves with a few smaller hikes. But when the weather permits and we can return, we’ll surely choose to stay here again. Run by a very nice and helpful couple who can answer any questions you have about the Park and its many hikes. This is truly a wonderful place to stay. Highly recommend."
