New Zealand Hiking Secrets

Hey I'm Kristina! Welcome to my ultimate hiking & adventure guide to New Zealand.

I'm a kiwi girl who's spent over 10 years hiking, road tripping and exploring every corner of New Zealand's beautiful outdoors.

If you love to hike and find stunning views, this is the guide for you.

From epic mountain trails and backcountry camping spots, to hidden coastal gems, waterfalls & photography locations, this guide is a collection of all my favorite places on the North and South Islands. Plus I keep adding recommendations as I explore more.

In my guide you'll find:

  • New Zealand's best hikes, from short hikes to multi day treks
  • The best huts and campsites (+info on how to find, book these)
  • Gorgeous waterfalls, beaches, photospots and hidden gems
  • A few of my favorite unique stays, adventures and places to eat.

All my recommendations are based on personal experience to help you plan an authentic New Zealand adventure. Happy Travels!
