Fiordland

Te Anau, New Zealand


Arrived in the most stunning part of Nz so far, we arrive in the Fiordland Nt park famous for the Milford Sound, we saw the amazing Fiordlands in the late afternoon after a long drive to get there.

Camped up in the area but they had had rain the night before so the infamous sand flies were out in force and our feeble insect repellent was about as much use as a chocolate teapot !


Anyway the nest day we did "the best bike ride in the world" the 12 km downhill ride from the Homer Tunnel down to the Milford Sound, it didn't take long as we flew down the hill, slowing up only to see the amazing scenery along the way !!

We biked down to the Sound, and took a boat cruise on the water, the only way to fully see the scenery, really amazing and totally un-photographable, brilliant weather too, considering this is the wettest place in NZ, We had great sunshine !



One of the most amazing places in the world, if you visit NZ you have to get down to this neck of the woods!
