Milford Track

Kiwi Discovery offer unguided, affordable hiking packages for your independent hike/walk.

The Milford Track (53.5 kilometres) is in the heart of the Fiordland National Park – South West New Zealand World Heritage Area. The track is walked over 4 days (3 nights).

The Milford Track requires boat transport at both ends of the track. Bus or private transport is required to Te Anau Downs where the boat leaves and then transport will be required at Milford Sound back to your accommodation. You can walk the track independently (unguided) and Kiwi Discovery can help you organise everything in one package.

Kiwi Discovery can help with transport sectors. Kiwi Discovery offer a number of options:
