New Zealand's most popular walking track is reopening today after it was closed several times due to volcanic activity.

The full Tongariro alpine crossing is opening in time for the winter trekking season.

The track was closed after eruptions in August and November last year, and was partially reopened in December.

More than 71,000 trekkers who walk the track every year will now be able to enjoy the complete route.
