The eleven Great Walks of New Zealand are a collection of New Zealand's most popular and scenic multi-day walks.
All of the eleven Great Walks provide unparalleled access to some of the country’s most incredible natural landscapes, wildlife and cultural heritage. They traverse national parks and other culturally significant protected areas which are home to some of New Zealand’s most endangered tāonga (treasures).
