Walks in Milford Sound

For many, the Te Anau-Milford Highway offers the first taste of Fiordland’s spectacular national park. So why not pull over and take some time to explore all the area has to offer? There are many walks and scenic viewpoints along the Milford Road, which only add to the incredible Piopiotahi Milford Sound experience.

 

Note: Milford Sound and the Milford Road are in Fiordland National Park, Dogs are not permitted in National Parks
