About Hillary Outdoors <strong>Tongariro</strong> Program<br />
Established in 1887, <strong>Tongariro</strong> was the first National Park in<br />
New Zealand. It is also a dual World Heritage area recognizing<br />
the Park’s important Maori cultural and spiritual associations,<br />
as well as its outstanding volcanic features in an area surrounded<br />
by lakes, rivers, mountains and native bush.<br />
This is an inspirational adventure, which has its roots firmly<br />
planted in the determination and strength that pushed Sir<br />
Edmund Hillary to conquer the summit of Mount Everest.<br />
The Hillary Outdoor Pursuits Centre was created over 40 years<br />
ago, through the collaboration of New Zealand’s most famous<br />
mountaineers and adventurers, Sir Edmund Hillary and<br />
Graeme Dingle.<br />
This epic adventure will see your teenager’s abseiling, rock climbing, caving,<br />
kayaking, mastering high ropes, learning bush skills, camping and hiking<br />
some of the world’s most stunning mountains. Astounding beauty like this<br />
will be hard to find, with the Hillary Outdoors <strong>Tongariro</strong> Program located<br />
in a beautiful wilderness area of the Central North Island.<br />
Students work in teams, learn to trust fellow adventurers, solve<br />
problems, and challenge themselves physically, reaching<br />
beyond their comfort zone. This is a once-in-a-lifetime<br />
opportunity for students to reach above their expectations<br />
and learn that they can leverage themselves to new heights,<br />
and experience the unbelievable benefits that will become a<br />
part of them for life.<br />
