Te Araroa Essential Map Series and Toolkit
Te Araroa is more than a line on a map — it’s a living journey through landscapes, communities, and stories across Aotearoa. This new six-map series brings the whole trail together, beautifully designed for walkers, section-planners, and everyone who’s part of the Te Araroa journey. The first-ever complete map set for New Zealand’s greatest trail.
Our Te Araroa Map Series & Toolkit is the first time the full 3000 km trail has been mapped and designed as a connected journey — made for trail dreamers, section walkers, and anyone drawn to the long path through Aotearoa.
At Wildlab, we’ve created these maps to help you imagine, plan, and share your own steps along the trail — a celebration of the wild heart of Aotearoa and the people who walk it.
Each set includes:
-
Six large-format maps (940 × 645 mm) covering the full trail
-
A detailed toolkit of ideas, tips, and insights printed on the back of every map
-
A bonus Trail Planner Map for planning sections, seasons, and day walks
-
Full-colour aerial topography with route notes, highlights, and story-rich detail
These maps will spark your imagination, helping you picture what’s possible and plan a journey that’s uniquely your own.
