This popular guide to New Zealand's most exciting tramping tracks, written by two highly experienced trampers, was first published in 1986 as 75 Great Tramps for New Zealanders. Now the authors have revised and updated their original guide, adding 26 new tramps to enrich the diversity of the classic tramping areas and introduce fresh areas such as the Coromandel and the Kaimais in the North Island and the east coast river valleys of the South Island.

The tramps range from the internationally famous, such as the Milford and Routeburn tracks, to "those obscure places that neither locals nor visitors have heard much about — the 1000 Acre Plateau, the Wills Valley and Lake Stream . . ." The guide covers a range of hikes, from relaxed family outings to rugged wilderness treks. Route descriptions are always comprehensive and easy to follow. Each track is assessed for its terrain, hut facilities, scenic delights and access.
