FIORDLAND NATIONAL PARK

This is one of the most visited regions in New Zealand right at the southwestern corner of the South Island. It's a must on any New Zealand itinerary with its famous hiking trails, spectacular scenery and the famed Milford Sound. The Milford Sound is one of the most visited areas and most accessible. The village lies under Mitre Peak and is the launching place for cruises or kayaking on Milford Sound - keep a look out for seals and the Kea bird. The Milford Track, Dusky, Kepler, Hollyford and Routeburn tracks all base in this area. If you visit for the walks book the huts well in advance and come prepared for wet weather gear and pesky insects!
