Discover The Breathtaking Beauty Of Milford Sound

It’s no secret that we love New Zealand. Its mountains, forests, lakes and drives are some of the most beautiful in the world, but there’s a part of New Zealand that might just trump the rest of it.

In the south west of the South Island is Milford Sound, a fiord within Fiordland National Park. Recognised as one of the most beautiful places in the world, it is blessed with crystal clear water that’s clean enough to drink and fringed by lush steep hills with cascading waterfalls. You can kayak, swim, sail, walk, or simply gaze upon its sheer natural beauty.

Even on a cloudy day, the water reflects the striking landscape of Milford Sound, and you can’t help but feel completely isolated when the clouds linger amongst those towering peaks. While it may be one of the rainiest places on earth, travel blogger, Louis Cole discovered Milford Sound on a gloriously sunny day…

Whether it’s soaked in rain, sunshine, sleet or thick cloud, you’d be a fool not to include Milford Sound on your travel bucket list.
