Can I hike the Fox Glacier in NZ on my own, or do I have to go with a guide?

Accepted answer
There are trails you can use to hike to (or near) the glacier on your own. There are signs positioned daily showing the safe limit.
Most people use guides for travel on the Fox Glacier. You are allowed to hike on the Fox Glacier without a guide, IF you have the proper equipment and experience. You need a rope, crampons, helmet, ice axe, etc. Solo travel is not recommended.

You can walk right up to the base of the glacier. There are walking paths from the town but it's a fairly long walk, think it took me at least 2 hours. You can also travel there by car or bus from town too.
