Peter Janssen has revised and updated this best-selling book to include more than 400+ North Island short walks with a difference. They are grouped by region, and each can be accomplished within the span of a couple of hours (and some much less), putting them well within the grasp of most people. What's more, all of them have a memorable highlight as their destination, whether it's a spectacular feature of the natural landscape, an historic site or similar landmark, giving readers motivation to stretch their legs. The book is ideal for those walkers who are not at their peak level or fitness, those with children or like many visitors to New Zealand those who do not have full tramping kit to hand. Every walk includes a highlight, whether it's an historic landmark such as Kerikeri's Stone Store; a spectacular natural feature, such as the Craters of the Moon near Lake Taupo; or simply a great view, such as can be had from Makorori Point on East Cape or Wellington's Mt Victoria.Each walk includes: highlight(s) how to get there grade time and full track notes. A short introduction gives information on bush safety, practical considerations and information on how to use the book.Important note Peter has walked every entry.
