A formidable landscape of forest-clad mountains, cascading waterfalls, deep fiords and granite peaks, the Fiordland National Park is home to the Doubtful and Milford Sounds, vast waterways contained in cragged basins carved out by glaciers during the ice ages. This is scenery on a giant scale, its magnificent beauty defying adequate description.
Cruise out onto the waters of the Sounds, described by Rudyard Kipling as the 'eighth wonder of the world, past a wild coastline dotted with New Zealand Fur Seals and try to spot the rare Fiordland Crested Penguins. Soar over the rugged peaks and pristine wilderness in a helicopter and hike the Milford Track to lose yourself in the sheer, unspoilt beauty of New Zealand’s largest national park.
