Routeburn Track / Milford Sound


16th Dec 10:
The "Routeburn" track is one of the most famous walks in Milford Sound. It is a 63Km walk starting from either the "Divide" to the "Routeburn Shelter". Unfortunately we only did the one day walk (10 hours) from the Divide to the lake McKenzie.

Some more glaciers on the way to the Routeburn track.

 

As usual, the view was amazing.

 
On the track.
Waterfalls and small rivers all the way during the walk.

Short break by Howden Hut, one of the base camping sites.



Small bridge crossing over the river.


The most amazing waterfalls. 







Lake McKenzie... WOW !!


Little siesta...
Still deciding if to swim or not... water: 3 degrees :-) brrr

He did!!
 and me too :-)

Feeling fresh and full of energy after the swim.. for the 4 hours walk ahead.

It was too hard to resist!

Woo Hoo :-) he did it again!


End of the walk...
