A group of nine of us are traveling to North Is. N.Z. in mid October to do the Northern Circuit of Mt. Tongariro Nat. Park ,then head down to do a 3-day hike around Lake Waikaremoana, staying at Panekire then Marauiti Huts. We have booked huts & checked local facilities ,has anyone recently done these walks & if so any tips .We are members of a local bush-walking club, We plan to resupply/stock up on food /fuel etc at both Rotarua & Taupo .
Thanks,-Tassie Trekker.
