This photo was taken on the Tongariro Alpine Crossing. One of the best/prettiest day walks in the world. The Tongariro Alpine Crossing is located in New Zealand on the North Island. It runs over an active volcano named Mt. Tongariro and runs along Mt. Ngauruhoe. The latter can be climbed as an extra side trip, if the weather allows it.
Both mountains were the scene locations for the 'Lord of the Rings', because Mount Doom was filmed there....

It was in the afternoon, so I indeed had the light for the side.
