The annual New Zealand Alpine Journal is NZAC’s premiere publication; a record, source for research and a forum for reflection. 

The Journal is the Club’s premiere publication; a record, source for research and a forum for reflection. 

The New Zealand Alpine Club Journal was first published in March 1892.  With a small gap between 1896 and 1921, the Journal has mostly been published annually ever since.  In 1972 the Journal increased in size and colour images began to be included.  Also, from 1972 up until 2002 both hard and soft cover versions were printed.  Today’s Journals are produced in soft cover only and published each December. 

The Journal has gone from strength to strength to become a mainstay of the New Zealand Alpine Club and much admired publication.
