Super hard track with perfect sun weather. The view is awesome! Absolutely do it!

Tough trek to the summit but totally worth it for the views and sense of accomplishment. Getting down the mountain is a lots harder than going up :)

Awesome

We did the summit track with really sunny prevision. We started at 4:15h and the sunrise was awesome in the way up! We would hardly recomend to go early. Its better to wear hike shoes and poles because the last part is quite slippery

The walk took me 8 hours. I had a lot of breaks on the way up to enjoy the view. Didn't had any hiking shoes or poles, totaly fine in good weather conditions :)

Must do in New Zealand!

We left around half past midnight to arrive at the summit for the sunrise. We took our time because there is really a way to do it in less time! Plan warm clothes because it is really cold at the top! Gloves are particularly indispensable. Have a good headlamp to see the stakes. Sure, it was worth it! Do not forget to look behind the mountain when the sun rises to see its shadow ..!

Climbing Mount Taranaki Summit is one of the things you need to do on the North Island !!! The view is indescribably beautiful!
