From Queenstown to Milford

Milford Sound is a well known travel destination. The crow flies distance between Queenstown and Milford is not far, but because of the complicated geological conditions, the driving distance is not short. Fortunately, it’s a scenic route and very beautiful. The trip is not boring at all.

The route passes Te Anau. The 53km Milford Track is a famous trail from Te Anau to Milford. New Zealand is a good place for hiking. It’s very strange that there is no large wild mammals in New Zealand. The good thing is that you do not need to worry about bear attack in the wild like North America. Also, you don’t need to worry about human attack like some places in the US.

从皇后镇到Milford

Milford峡湾是一处著名的景点。皇后镇和Milford的直线距离并不远，但是由于高山阻隔，开车去Milford需要绕很多路。我们一早离开皇后镇，开车需要途径Te Anau到达Milford，一路山清水秀，风景怡人。

从Te Anau到Milford有一条53公里的山路叫做Milford Track，很多人徒步旅行。新西兰有很多这样的徒步山路。如果有时间在新西兰徒步旅行是个很好的选择。新西兰有个很奇怪的现象，自然环境非常好，但是没有任何大型野生哺乳动物，所以野外徒步不必像在北美一样担心熊的攻击。另外新西兰也很安全，不像在美国某些地方需要担心人的攻击。
