Egmont National Park
Sights

Whether your thing is climbing sheer rocky crags or taking a 10-minute stroll to a forest waterfall, you’ll find something to wow you in this national park. Short walks to natural features, multiday hikes using park huts for accommodation, and day climbs of the mountain (rocky in summer, icy and snowy in winter) are all popular. There’s also a very basic slope for skiers.
