Dit was zo cool!Bedankt!
Eerlijk gezegd zo'n epische wandeling, mis deze niet! We hadden een geweldige tijd en begonnen aan het einde rond 8am, liepen naar de piek en dan terug naar beneden, wat een beetje moeilijker is, maar betekent dat we op de snelweg in de buurt van dat einde konden parkeren terug naar onze van. Draag goede schoenen, breng 1.5L of meer water, veel snacks en wat zonnebrandcrème ook. Het is een lange reis met veel hellingen maar de paden zijn vrij mooi tot de laatste klim naar de top waar je de losse grond moet omarmen!
Voor mensen die regelmatig alpine wandelen, de tour is lang, maar niet moeilijk. Als je geen goede apparatuur of geen wandelen ervaring, deze tour is niet geschikt. We hadden -9 graden Celsius en een zeer koude, sterke wind. Handschoenen, een hoed, stevige schoenen, en verschillende lagen van kleding zijn essentieel, zelfs in de zomer.

I was very surprised to see very few people carrying their 10+ essentials. Remember your Ts of hiking here folks. You are going up into the mountains. And volcanoes at that. This is not a stroll around a park. Today I saw lots of questionable footwear choices and then these are the people that wonder why they’re shitting their pants going down volcanic scree. Don’t want to be a harbinger but no one wants to be a SAR call (assuming you get cell service). The track itself was beautiful and mind blowing.
Hello there, I lost my billabong hat somewhere here, it’s grey with strap and kinda worn out but it’s so dear to me, if anybody found it please call me here 0273389701. Thank you ?
Absolutely incredible! L, especially at the moment with no tourists it’s so quiet. Highly recommend the parking with a shuttle to the start so there’s no pressure to catch a shuttle at the end. Take snacks, lunch, plenty of water and all the layers! You need full thermals, puffy, waterproof and decent walking shoes/boots, sun hat, wooly hat, gloves and suncream - believe me I used them all!

Very sweaty and long. Without the time pressure from the shuttle service, it would have taken us 9 hours (mid-20s). But the view is unbeatable on a sunny day.
The crossing was incredible. We did it on a windy day so started a little later (8:30am). Anyone is able to do this trek, if you take your time and know your limits. The winds at the top when we went were extremely dangerous to people who don’t have experience on loose surfaces, but if you are prepared you will be okay. The red crater and lakes are stunning and worth every step. Overall the trek was mildly difficult for us (average fitness, 19) and we finished it in 5 & 1/2 hrs with only one drink break as we didn’t want to stop in the windy parts. I definitely recommend this trip for everyone to do once in their lives and if there is anytime to do it, now is it. Usually in busy season there is around 5,000 people a day. We saw about 10. If you want to do it, do it now.
I dropped a silver heart necklace in the carpark with the initials ‘DD’ on it if anyone finds it 027 3754 688
