Paekakariki Escarpment track is fab, and might not take all day (though if you are going to and from Wellington on the train, it can), and the coffee at Paekakariki is a must
Ben Lomond is an excellent hike but its main advantage is you can walk it from the centre of Queenstown; I think the other hikes mentioned here are mostly better. The walk to Mueller Hut and back in Mt Cook is awesome.
None of them are actually closed, but it is not recommended to do any of the alpine tracks (Tongariro Crossing, Taranaki Summit, Avalanche Peak) in winter conditions unless you are experienced in mountaineering, and Roys Peak and Mt Holdsworth may also be dangerous in winter.
Pretty good list bro! Some Inspo for us!
Thanks mate! Hope you enjoy the great scenery!
I've done number 8 and it was very nice and left a lasting memory - it was 25 years ago.
Nice one! Greetings from Nepal. I will be there soon
Thanks! Enjoy ;)

Hi there, would you know which of these hikes would be closed during winter season/snow?
None of them are actually closed, but it is not recommended to do any of the alpine tracks (Tongariro Crossing, Taranaki Summit, Avalanche Peak) in winter conditions unless you are experienced in mountaineering, and Roys Peak and Mt Holdsworth may also be dangerous in winter.

That's right!
