Step aboard for a breathtaking Milford Sound cruise, soaking in those legendary sheer cliffs and cascading waterfalls. Afterwards, hop on a water taxi to Sandfly Point and walk the spectacular trail to Giant Gate Falls. The striking glacial blue-green falls drop 30 meters into a large, deep pool. Fancy a swim? Many hikers take a celebratory dip before walking the final section back to Sandfly Point. The stunning 3–4 hour journey ventures through some of New Zealand’s most pristine wilderness. Finally, sit back and relax on the scenic bus ride back to Te Anau.

This is also where there’s a good chance you’ll encounter kea, New Zealand’s large, extremely intelligent alpine parrots. From Luxmore Hut you descend through the alpine ridgeline before dropping back into the beech forest, arriving at Brod Bay on the shore of Lake Te Anau, a lovely spot to cool off with a swim.

ACCOMMODATION & DINING

OVERVIEW

We are based in Te Anau for the best part of the trip at luxury 4-star hotel. Conveniently located in the heart of Te Anau’s town centre, a short stroll from Lake Te Anau, the South Island’s largest lake and launching pad for our amazing tour. The hotel has 2 on-site restaurants.  The cafe and bar is popular among Te Anau locals and a great choice for relaxing after exploring Fiordland. In Queenstown you’ll stay at a convenient 4-star hotel close to all amenities, including the lake. Buffet breakfast is included daily, with an optional à la carte dinner and cocktail bar. The food scene in Queenstown is worth venturing out for. Pre-bookings are essential at restaurants. Alternatively a Fergburger and lake view is a great relaxed option.

GENERAL INFO

START TIME

The trip begins in Queenstown with a transfer to Te Anau, the Gateway to the Fiordland, and our base in Fiordland National Park. You will have to arrive in Queenstown before 3 pm to pick up the last transfer at 4:30pm sharp. Please let us know your flight details. There is also an earlier transfer at 10:30am. The transfer directly to your accommodation will take approximately 2 hrs 45 mins.

GETTING THERE AND AWAY

Direct flights to Queenstown are available from most major Australian cities. If you are arriving from further afield Queenstown is an International airport so some International flights may fly here. Air New Zealand operates many domestic flights and you will be able to transfer to Queenstown easily from other centres. It is a short taxi ride from the airport into Queenstown.

If you are already in New Zealand you can opt to reach Queenstown either by self drive or by bus. If you choose to self-drive, the roads from Christchurch or further north are excellent and offer ample opportunities to explore on the way.

Walking

Other than one day on the Kepler where there is 800m elevation gain the walking is moderate and even easy on mostly even/flat terrain.

WEATHER

Fiordland weather is highly changeable, so when you visit prepare for all conditions. In New Zealand, January and February are the warmest months of the year (summer), and July is the coldest (winter).  Thanks to the amount of rain here the Fiordland area has amazing waterfalls and forest for you to enjoy.

The rainfall and unpredictable weather patterns are due the famous ‘Roaring Forties’ westerly air streams. These winds pick up moisture as they cross the Tasman Sea, are pushed up by the mountains then release it as heavy rain in the west and snow at higher levels.

See the New Zealand Meteorological Service for information about average temperatures and rainfall at different times of the year.

INSURANCE

We require that you have adequate travel insurance against potential losses, damage or injury, including cancellation costs and loss of luggage.

For all trips that require international travel, you must have purchased travel insurance that also includes medical evacuation coverage.

We also charge a cancellation fee if you cancel your walking holiday after we have confirmed it to cover costs incurred from our suppliers and in the office.  See the FAQ section for more information.

INFORMATION PACK

For over 30 years we have taken pride in providing seamlessly organised walking holidays, but we know, even with that in mind, that you’ll have many more questions. You will receive a very detailed information pack and itinerary approximately 6 weeks out from departure outlining all the fine detail and much more.
