Depart Queenstown 7.15a.m. by luxury
Coach for Milford Sound. This breathtaking scenic adventure starts
as we head south along Lake Wakatipu, under the
looming shoulders of The Remarkables Range.
Beyond the rugged lake edge the country transforms to high country
pastures surrounded by mountains then its down into the serenely
beautiful farm country of the Northern Southland plains.
Heading west towards the mountains and Te Anau we pass through
some of New Zealand most scenic farm country. Around us are clear
streams & rivers, world famous for their trout fishing.
At Te Anau village we stop for refreshments,
looking across the lake we see the undisturbed eastern fringes
of the bush clad Fiordland National Park, where green bush clad
valleys rise to row upon row of mountain peaks.
We recommence our journey and travel north alongside Lake Te
Anau entering The Fiordland National Park, this
World Heritage area, has some of the most spectacular and memorable
scenery in the world. This is New Zealand as you imagined it.
From the Eglinton Valley with its endless golden tussock
pastures, we travel into beech forests,
past tranquil lakes and crystal clear
rivers as we climb steadily into the very heart of the
mountains. Passing through mist covered valleys,
carved out by rock and ice to reach the Homer Tunnel, the gateway
to Milford Sound is through a huge mountain. Starting our descent
into Milford Sound we travel from cloud capped forest peaks into
the subtropical west coast valleys of Milford Sound,
the sheer visual power of the destination is a fitting climax
to one of the worlds great road trips.
Here our cruise vessel awaits, it’s time
for another unforgettable perspective of nature at her most awe
inspiring best.
