Turoa Alpine South East Basin Meander
Thursday 06 January 2022, 10:00am - 03:00pm
Contact Project Tongariro Mahi Aroha
 
Have you experienced Turoa in the summer?
 
There are beautiful valleys and striking volcanic features tucked away nearby. Come for a wander up to the Wintergarden, then a scramble over the rocky terrain out to the east to see the botanical alpine treasures hidden there nestled in the amazing lava flows. You will see a completely different perspective – and we will tell you some stories on the way. We may see a North Island edelweiss but no guarantees. If we have clear weather, the vista over the Rangataua Lava flow and out towards the Waimarino are stunning.
 
This trip is led by two ex DOC staff, now local conservationists and mountain enthusiasts; one with an interest in the local history and botany, and the other a policy and land tenure expert
