In the summer of 2011, from January 7th to 9th, we walked the Routeburn Track, one of New Zealand's Great Walks.
40 kms of tramping through pristine beech forest and Alpine tussock from the Routeburn Shelter, via the Routeburn Flats and Falls over the Harris Saddle to Conical Hill. Back down via the Mackenzie and Howden lakes and huts.
After 3 days of walking through the Mt. Aspiring and Fiordland National Parks in the Southern Alps, a bus took us from The Divide to The Milford Sound.
It was the highlight of a month long visit to New Zealand.
