The Track
Since the route was opened in 1888, everyone from experienced walkers to beginners breaking in their new boots, have all taken up the challenge of walking the Milford Track. After reading about New Zealand’s South Island and its amazing Fiordland area, we decided that the Track was for us, and we chose to go as independent walkers. And the track made sure we experienced it in its many guises – benevolent, rain-soaked, windy and occasionally serene.
This was a great four day trek. We got totally soaked (we had 2 ½ days of rain). Our clothes did not dry, but it was good fun. We made quick friendships with our fellow walkers, since we all shared the same conditions, and the same goal – to reach Sandfly Point. Each hut had its own ranger who would provide a debrief of the day’s journey and gave us a weather report for the next day. Every day was an adventure walking the Milford Track.
