Welcome to the SiroWaw Portal
The SiroWaw Portal provides information about Tramping (hiking) in New Zealand, a resources area and sections providing links to and information about various New Zealand based Outdoor websites with an emphasis on Outdoor Safety and Training.
Access to NZ Tramping information can be found via the "Tramping in NZ" menu or the "North & South Island Tramping Map" tabs in the header. These maps display the main tramping areas of each island and provide links to sites providing additional information. There are also links to many of the popular Tramps/Great Walks, trip reports, trip routes/maps/images of tramps, trips or courses undertaken by Peter Waworis, associates and other interested parties. This site like many personal interest sites is still very much a work in progress with lots of ideas but limited time to deliver...
We have included lots of images to highlight some of the wonderful sights we have seen on our travels. Hopefully the trip and route/map details will be useful to others planning trips in the areas covered. Feel free to contact Peter for additional information. If you would like to contribute an article, email the text along with any images with descriptions.
Enjoy our great New Zealand Outdoors!!

The destination for our annual February trip this year was to get over the main divide into the Landsborough. Research indicated that there were a few circuits possible and a plan was hatched to have a go at a Hopkins, Huxley, Ahuriri, Hunter and Landsborough catchment circuit. (Route details). The big concern was the requirement for good visibility as we had four significant alpine crossings. The summer of 2011-12 has not been great with our New Years trip in the Richmond range re-routed due to rain and poor visibility on the tops.
