The Milford Road 1

The Milford Road leads from Te Anau to Milford Sound, which was where we were heading to, and it winds through Fiordland National Park. On the journey, we encountered some of the most spectacular landscapes I had ever seen.

Fast-flowing rapids fed by the constant rain and melting glaciers wind their way through the green valleys

The stream carves a tunnel through the layer of ice, remnants of an avalanche.

On both sides of the road, hundreds of waterfalls cascade down sharp cliffs into the valley

Water from the heavens...

The low clouds and mist add a mystical and mysterious ambience to the landscape
