The Milford Road 

For current road information see http://www.milfordroad.co.nz/ 

The road to MILFORD SOUND is one of the world's finest drives. After leaving Te Anau, visitors follow 119km of sealed road to the majestic Milford Sound. Fiordland’s steep mountain ranges sometimes cause avalanche conditions resulting in road closure if avalanches are likely.

Between May and November all travellers must carry car chains at all times. Chains can be hired in Te Anau at any of the local service stations.

We recommend visitors travel with experienced local coach operators particularly during winter months as a safe option.

Fiordland’s native evergreen forests do not offer quite the same golden autumn experience of some of our Southern Lakes neighbors, but Autumn is a great time to visit to avoid the crowds and explore the National Park and walking tracks outside of the peak season.
