About this tour

What to expect
You'll be collected before dawn and driven to the trailhead, where a headlamp becomes essential as you climb in darkness with a guide. The path gains elevation steadily for roughly 90 minutes. At the summit, watch the sky shift from black to grey to warm colour as the sun clears the horizon and illuminates the volcanic landscape. After resting and absorbing the view, you'll descend partway to the natural hot spring for a warm soak, then return to base. Total time on foot is around 4–5 hours, with rest breaks included.
Good to know
Bring sturdy walking shoes, a light layer for the cool summit, and sunscreen. The climb is steady but not technical; fitness matters more than technical skill. Pregnant travellers, those with spinal issues, or cardiovascular concerns should skip this. Infants can attend but must sit with an adult; infant seats are available on request.
