Excellente marche d’environ 3 heures sur le flanc puis le sommet descente dans le cratère et enfin remontée
Il faut compter une petite heure en van du. Point descente rdv à rotuera au départ du track
Les deux accompagnateurs très sympathiques sont également très concentrés sur la sécurité
Ce qui donne bcp de confiance

You will meet in a parking lot and then head to the volcano. The road going up is through the bush and bumpy. Porta potty stop before you head your hike starting point. We had some older members of our group hear about our course and decided to sit it out. You are given a hiking stick - take it with you. Wear hiking boots (TALL ONES) and bring water. You are essentially bringing the ring to the top of mordor LOTR style- no other way to describe this epic journey. The guides were great but they are not hauling you through this. It is up, across, down (which is like volanco skiing) and then up some serious stepped stairs - pictures and views are amazing. Be prepared, know your limits and go on this serious hike for some serious adventure!
