Tongariro Forest Park Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

7 hours hike. One of the best views I've ever seen in my life. Loved it. Would recommend it to anyone on a sunny day.

8.2/10 Very Good! (1,000 reviews)
The bed was comfy, room was cozy, close to national park and restaurants. Hot tub area needs some attention. Chairs were worn and cushions moldy. No instructions on how to work hot tub. TV only has 13 channels. Otherwise perfect for 1 night.

We were arriving late so a quick call to arrange late check in was easy. We stayed 3 nights in total with a 4 day trip away in between nights which was made so easy by the owner to allow us the same chalet for each night. Easy walk to town and we did drive some nights. Very quiet and rooms very clean. ...
