Fiordland

Now I would like to lead you to almost the bottom of the South Island of New Zealand on my virtual “tour” of our unique and beautiful Island Nation.

Fiordland is one of the most dramatic and beautiful parts of New Zealand.

Carved by glaciers over 100,000 years the landscape is one where waterfalls cascade hundreds of metres into deep black fiords; where ancient rainforest untouched by man clings to mountains and where shimmering lakes and granite peaks look as they did a thousand years ago.

Fiordland National Park is a World Heritage Site and includes Milford, Dusky and Doubtful Sounds. Once described as the Eighth Wonder of the World; should you ever be lucky enough to take a scenic flight over it you will understand why.
