Beautiful lake shimmering in shades of blue

For many hikers the most memorable part of the remarkable Tongariro Alpine Crossing is the steep descent from the trail’s highest point above Red Crater to the first Emerald Lake. Here the path descends by 150 m (490 feet) for a run of 300 m (980 feet). This equates to a 1:2 slope or a gradient slope percentage of 50%. For some hikers the descent is memorable because it is the most challenging section of the Tongariro Alpine Crossing to negotiate safely. For other hikers the descent is memorable because it is arguably the most exhilarating and exciting part of the trail. For nearly all hikers the descent will be unforgettable! The challenge and excitement of this steep descent is enhanced by the trail having drop offs on both its sides (the right side dropping into Red Crater), by the dramatic volcanic scenery evident everywhere, and by the photogenic emerald lakes that lie invitingly ahead! The steep trail is covered by grey-black basalt scoria, dirt and gravel, and is slippery in places. Hence for the best experience during the descent, concentration and care are advised especially in windy conditions.

After the South Crater you should climb up the saddle towards Red Crater. The stunning view makes the effort worth it.

With high, sturdy shoes and a solid step security, the slope is not a problem. The slope is full of small "gravel" stones.

A loose pumice-ash mixture lies at least ankle-deep and you inevitably slide downhill a little uncontrollably with every step. Sturdy, ankle-high shoes increase the surefootedness.
