The Tongariro crossing is often described as one of the best one-day hikes in the world. This is a high resolution panoramic image illustrating the unforgiving terrain and the scale of the challenge. The area was used by Peter Jackson in his adaptation of Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" to depict Mount Doom.
