A must read if planning to tramp in New Zealand
This book is a very comprehensive guide for any one planning to go "Tramping in New Zealand" covering everything from water tablets to water tables coastal day walks to five day alpine crossings, with excellent chapters on tramping facts and health and safety, each included walk is given equal priority with maps and sugested itineraries and transport sugestions. A great read for those cold nights in the tent.

Good for summer walking only
This guidebook provides good advice on the major walking routes in New Zealand, but very little gets mentioned in the blurb about the seasons when the walks can be carried out. Having come to NZ in their winter, only two of the walks are possible, the others being on paths closed or too dangerous in snowy conditions.
Still good for summer though!
