In 2014, I traveled around the world with my girlfriend. We visited 7 countries and during that trip we did a lot of hiking. One of our favorite hikes has to be the Tongariro Alpine Crossing in New Zealand. The full distance of the track is about 20 km, you have surroundings of volcanoes and fumaroles that constantly releases steam and sulphur dioxide gas into the air, lakes and pools that are deeply colored by the volcanic minerals etc. Most of the walk is through raw volcanic terrain. The three volcanoes in the area are all highly active and the terrain reflects this.

It was such a beautiful place and it felt like you were walking on another planet. If you are planning to travel to New Zealand, please don't miss this place. Especially if you love hiking, it will blow your mind!
