Milford Sound
Mitre Peak, Milford Sound Milford Sound is the most famous and accessible of the grand glacier-carved fiords scattered along New Zealand’s south-western coast.
The road to Milford is one of the world’s finest alpine drives. From Te Anau, the road winds down the Eglinton and Hollyford valleys, then through the Homer Tunnel to be met by Mitre Peak towering from the glassy waters of Milford Sound.
Mountain peaks with sculptural, hanging valleys send waterfalls cascading over sheer granite cliffs to the sea below. Boat trips on the Sound are a must and provide close-up views of awe-inspiring scenery. These cruises are often accompanied by playful dolphins and seals basking on rocks are a common sight.
