Travel Advisory

Your well-being is our first priority

At Great Walks of New Zealand, your safety is our main concern.

We frequently review all aspects of our walks to ensure we are providing you with the safest possible travel experience.

CURRENT UPDATES

Weather Warnings - All Tracks.

The seasons are changing and we are seeing very quick changing weather patterns around the country currently - with more rain, stronger winds and even snow in the South Island.

Please ensure that before you set out on any of our Self-Guided walks, you check the weather watches in place for the region you will be walking in and take note of any severe weather that may be approaching. A good reference is https://www.metservice.com/warnings/home.

Guided walkers will be advised of track conditions at trip briefings by their local guides.

Always ensure that your gear is suitable for changeable conditions and be prepared.
