Hiking the Milford Track is an experience of a lifetime and it is the most famous track in New Zealand. It's a moderately challenging hike. Length of 53.5 kilometers of well-formed trail, the Milford Track takes four days to complete. In the 1880s, the Milford Track was labelled the "finest walk in the world" due to its outstanding scenery. Every possible aspect of Fiordland is on show here - glaciers, fiords, sheer granite mountains, lush beech and podocarp forests, majestic waterfalls and the chance to see rare birdlife. The walk follows the very same pristine rivers and alpine passes which were once traversed by Māori and European explorers.
