description: In New Zealand, tramping is the only way to travel. Spectacular escarpments, magnificent glaciers, soothing hot springs and timeless forests - they're all just a walk away. And when you trave the country on foot, you leave the crowds and the 80s behind. Jim DuFresne's extensive knowledge of bushwalking and infectious enthusiasm for this spell-binding landscape make him the perfect guide to New Zeland's parks. Amongst the 40 tracks he describes are shorter walks for the less experienced, invigorating hikes and challenging extended tramps. Jim tells you how to get to and from the parks, where to stay and what to take. Concise maps show tracks, huts and natural features, while brief background notes give a fascinating insight into the history of these exceptional walks.
