{{New Zealand}} '''Fiordland''' is a region in the southwest of the south island of [[New Zealand]]. It is very rugged terrain and many areas are largely inaccessible. There are many spectacular fiords however only Milford Sound and Doubtful Sound are readily accessible to tourists. === Te Anau === The small township of '''Te Anau''' is the entry point to some of the most spectacular and untouched regions of [[New Zealand]]. === Milford Sound === Milford Sound is a tourist gem. The road to Milford passes through some of the most impressive scenery in New Zealand. The road passes through the single-lane Homer Tunnel which was built through granite rock in the 1850's. A boat trip on the Sound leaves a mystical imprint. . === Doubtful Sound === . === Keplar Track === . === Routeburn Track === . == Tips == Be aware of unpredictible weather<br /> There is a fine if you get caught camping in your car or tent without a DOC pass. Pick them up from the Department of Conversation in Te Anau. A guided tour bus to Milford Sound is expensive but worthwhile, with a cruise on the sound a must.<br /> Autumn is a fabulous time for colour. Roads may be closed in winter due to snow and ice. Beware of sandflies - they are plentiful and hungry for blood (especially fresh tourist blood!) Be sure to have plenty of strong insect repellent ('''Dimp''' works well). [[Category:New Zealand]]
