Your
guided walk begins deep in the primeval beech forests below the near
vertical walls of the snow-capped Darran Mountains and undulates
gently alongside the swift clear waters of the Hollyford River.
Here you will see Fiordland's two highest peaks, Mt Tutoko(2746m)
and Mt Madeline (2537m) and the roaring cascade of Hidden Falls
which emerges from a hanging valley through a narrow
chasm of granite.
As you progress towards Lake McKerrow and onwards to the thundering
surf of the Tasman Sea, you will be profoundly moved by the
dramatically changing scenery, the abundance of wildlife and the
vast variety of forest flowers and foliage.
Significant historical sites of early settlement provide intriguing
glimpses into the aspirations of the explorers and settlers of the
region, all of whom succumbed to the area's 'splendid isolation'.
The Hollyford Track experience offers what no other walk
does. A scenic flight to Milford Sound. Your flight
offers you incredible views up the Hollyford Valley, over Lake McKerrow to the Darran Mountains, including Fiordland's highest peak
Mt Tutoko and along the river valley.
Then you'll fly into famous Milford Sound, amidst the stunning
vistas of Mitre Peak and the Sound below.
