the tongagiro track

..walking the tongagiro track
This amazing walk encircles Mount Ngauruhoe, an active volcano in Tongariro National Park. You’ll see craters, explosion pits, lava flows and more Hiking around an active volcano would have to be one of life’s most memorable experiences. And if you decide to climb to the summit, the feeling of achievement is even more uplifting. The Tongariro Northern Circuit encircles the cone of Mount Ngauruhoe - the most perfectly-shaped volcanic cone within the Tongariro National Park. Although it’s resting at the moment, this mountain is New Zealand's most active volcano with 61 eruptions since 1839. Walked in its entirety, the track is 41 kilometres long and takes three to four days. However the first day follows the famous Tongariro Alpine Crossing, which is probably New Zealand’s best-known day hike. So if you don’t have time to do the full circuit, you can opt to do a single day.

As well as cultural attractions and activities, Rotorua is a hot spot for adventurous -if not downright wacky -entertainment. From having a ball in a Zorb to flying with Freefall Xtreme there are any number of ways to indulge in extreme sports. The bulk of these activities can be found at the Agrodome in Ngongo- taha, a small lakeside settlement six kilometres from the city centre.

day one: rotorua action

Key

The Zorb is a simple concept: a big, fat, clear plastic ball into which you climb before being rolled down a hill. You’re protected from serious harm by an air cushion between you and the ground, but if this is too tame you can always add another person, or throw in a bucket of water!

Then there’s Freefall Extreme: kitted up in a flying suit, goggles and gloves, you wait spread-eagled belly-down on a black net twenty metres above a 900 hp twin turbo V12 diesel powered DC3 aircraft propeller ready for takeoff. When the engine revs a blast of air travelling at over 150 kph hits your body and it’s like being blown to pieces by a giant hairdryer - without the heat. Your hair flaps, skin stretches tautly, ears pin themselves back in the whipping wind and suddenly you begin to levitate, rising slowly like a helicopter, hovering higher and higher until you’re two metres above the net and held aloft by the rushing jet stream. It’s a sensationally exhilarating experience but staying airborne is a lot harder than it looks. It takes a lot of practice before you can swoop and soar like a pro.

Instructors recommend pushing out your chest and using your arms like rudders but if all else fails a soft 12-metre wide giant air cushion surrounding the netting makes for a soft landing. But it should come with a warning: defying gravity like this is highly addictive!..
