Backpacking, trekking, hillwalking, bushwalking - whatever you may call it,
it's "tramping" in NZ. NZ's landscapes, lush forests, wildlife and pleasant climate make it a haven for many outdoor activities, and a great place to unwind. A country overflowing with geological and ecological splendor, Kiwis love their tramping and are
keen to share it with others.
