Kayaking Milford Sound |
An early morning kayak was a beautiful way to experience the Milford fiord. We were fortunate to see dolphins, seals, and rainbows. To give perspective on how large this area is, the boat in the background of the photo below was a huge cruise ship.
On our second day in Fiordland we were treated to a sunny, crisp morning, which is rare since Milford Sound is one of the wettest places on earth. The steep walls carved by glaciers thousands of years ago create their own weather patterns.
View from Key Summit Peak |
Nearby the Milford Sound we also walked to Key Summit Peak, the first hour of the Routeburn trail, to be rewarded with this stunning view of a mountaintop tarn (pond) reflecting the Southern Alps. Kiwis are very proud of their hiking trails, and rightly so.
