TAR - Schorman-Kaitoke main range traverse

Traverses 35 named peaks and includes around 6800m of vertical gain. A large majority of the route is in the sub-alpine zone, so is subject to very changeable weather.

Covering 75.2 km, this is a true long-distance trail best approached as a multi-day journey through varied terrain.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start. The trail is officially waymarked as TarSK, so look out for the trail markers along the way.

This route is part of the National Walking Network (NWN) — a flagship trail maintained to national standards, often following scenic or historically significant corridors.
