About Fiordland
Fiordland is New Zealand at its most dramatic: deep fiords, sheer rock walls and waterfalls that appear after the rain. The drive in, along the Milford Road, is part of the experience. Most Fiordland campervan trips start with a pick-up in Queenstown.
Highlights
Milford Sound (Piopiotahi)
Take a cruise beneath the cliffs and waterfalls. Book ahead in summer.
Milford Road
One of New Zealand's most scenic drives, with short walks and lookouts along the way.
Te Anau
A relaxed lakeside base for exploring the region, and the start of the Kepler Track.
Doubtful Sound
A quieter, more remote fiord reached by boat from Manapouri.
Tips for your trip
- Fill up on fuel before the Milford Road, and allow extra time for stops.
- Weather can close the road. Check conditions before you set off.
- Freedom camping rules in New Zealand are strict. Stay at holiday parks or designated sites.
