Mt Tauhara
North Island NZ
A moderate hike to the summit that offers excellent views of Lake Taupo, Mt Ruapehu and Mt Tongariro. The track is very well marked however it branches off quite frequently, don't panic all tracks lead to the summit so you won't get lost. The summit has great views but the best views are a bit further down the ridge line on a rocky outcrop.

Mt. Ngauruhoe (aka Mt Doom)
North Island NZ
The volcano where the one ring to rule them all was forged, or more accurately the volcano Mt Doom was modelled off for Lord of the Rings movies. Located just off the track on the Tongariro Crossing is a very intimidating climb to the summit of Mt Ngauruhoe. In recent years climbers have been encouraged not to climb it due to the dangers involved with climbing to the summit.
*On way up make sure to use the solid ground of the ridge line otherwise you will end up sliding down as much as you gain height with each step. This is very important to remember if you are going to try to summit Mt. Ngauruhoe.*
On the way down you will be able to 'scree ski' down which allows you to make it down the mountain very quickly around half an hour where as getting up would've taken around two hours.

Six Foot Track
New South Wales
The Six Foot Track has become one of the “classic” NSW overnight walks since it was opened for bushwalking in 1984. It follows the route of the original six foot wide bridle track between Katoomba and Jenolan caves built in 1884. A significant part of the track traverses farming land or uses 4WD roads (and all the official camp sites are accessible by 4WD) so don't expect a wilderness experience!
