By foot - Walk the finest walk in the world
The Milford Track guided walk is the ultimate way to experience Fiordland up close. Over five days, you’ll follow 53 kilometres of beautifully maintained track through ancient beech forest, across swing bridges and alpine passes. Each day, your knowledgeable Ultimate Hikes guides bring the landscape to life with stories about the history, geology and wildlife of this World Heritage area.
At the summit of Mackinnon Pass, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of mountains and valleys that few ever get to see. In the evenings, unwind in our private Ultimate Hikes lodges, complete with hot showers, hearty meals and a warm welcome.
By boat - Discover the famous fiord on a Milford Sound Cruise
Your Milford Track hiking tour begins and ends on the water. A scenic cruise across Lake Te Anau marks the start of your adventure, carrying you deep into the wilderness. After four unforgettable days on foot, another boat takes you through the spectacular Milford Sound, one of New Zealand’s most iconic natural landmarks.
As you glide beneath towering cliffs and watch waterfalls tumble hundreds of metres into the sea, you’ll understand why this region is world-famous.

Seeing the landscape from above offers a whole new perspective, glacial valleys, alpine lakes and the sinuous path of the track below complete with a scenic alpine landing. It’s an unforgettable finale to your Milford Track experience and a chance to truly grasp the scale of this remarkable wilderness.
