What the Milford Track is really like (NZ Hiking)

- A no bullshit video about what the Milford Track in New Zealand was like in April 2018, staying in the DOC huts.
The world-renowned Milford Track is an easy enough 4 day walk along valleys carved by glaciers, taking you though through ancient rain-forests and past many cascading waterfalls. You will get wet, cold, tired and wet again, but it's totally worth it; even you don't have great views from the Mackinnon Pass!

I did it in December of 1984 when i was 38 years old. One of the best experiences of my life.
thats a bellbird, not a tomtit!
Just finished the Routeburn just down the road from the Milford Track, first hike in decades,now I'm hungry for another and this looks very inviting, and why not, I live in Auckland! Great vid too
Thank you for a great video! I walked this track about 17 years ago and this brought back a lot of good memories.
At least you admit you snore. My mum when went hiking got up after snoring the entire night and claimed she hadn’t slept. So annoyed as I know she slept as I didn’t get any sleep
You mean Te Anau (said like teh ah no)
It’s pronounced Tay Ah Naw
@@carolynheaton6068 No. To learn the proper Maori pronunciation of Te Anau go to this link forvo.com/word/te_anau/
You forgot to mention the killer sandflies :-)
Surprisingly didn't see many at all! Even at sandfly point. I think it was too cold for them.
@@triggerhappytrails yes we just got back and we were eaten alive especially near the water, was shorts and t-shirt weather for most of it. Shame you had cloud on the pass. Thanks for sharing your video.
Sandflies at Milford are a marine insect. It rains that often and that heavy they don't know where the sea ends and the sky starts.
Welcome to you all for an adventure trek in Nepal !
For more detail message us🙏
when i hiked the track there were only 6 ppl including me on the track. I was lucky and blessed with awesome weather
Just FYI…the ducks in the video @4:55 are Paradise Shellducks (not Whio’s)
The milford track has many faces and I will admit, it cries a lot, thank gudness it was happy when we went😁😁😁
We hiked the Milford Track in 2005. Lovely weather & down right hot at times we swam in the rivers to cool down
One of my favorite memories ♥️ and the loo with a view was fun
Awesome, brave the cold elements bro. Now itd gfs turn🤔🤔🤔
You did well, thanks for sharing
Great little video I am walking it next week!
Fantastic! I hope you have good weather. All the best
thanks, we are heading on it on Friday
Ayyo transition at 0:44 is straight FIRE 🔥🔥🔥💯
Great footage, thanks for sharing with us. 💜
you got the names of the birds wrong sorry
what's the gear you used to film this? :) I filmed the southern half of Te Araroa (th-cam.com/video/_19rcH1tW1I/w-d-xo.html if you're interested) with my Sony a6300 plus feiyutech a1000 gimbal plus tripod and am planning to hike kungsleden in Sweden this summer if corona has left us by then. Not sure whether I want to carry that much gear again, so I'm looking for lighter options giving me simmilar results.
That Robin?? might be getting salt of your shoes, a guess.

Hi guys I would like to know what month of the year you would recommend me to visit this beautiful park, you know Latin Americans we do not like the cloudy and rainy days, thanks from Argentina.
Hey Alejandra! End of December and Beginning of Jan are the most popular dates because it's the height of summer and New Zealand Holidays. But the great thing is, if you get tickets there should only be you and the other 40 people who have tickets for the huts. You can never garantee sun in these parts of the South Island but you should have a great chance in summer. We did it at the end of the season end of April and we had only 1 full day of sun, the rest was cloudy, often very rainy! Hope it helps x
Thank you very much for your prompt response, I will take into account your important suggestion@@triggerhappytrails
it's 250 days raining in one year. that's rain forest. amazing
My boot is mounted. Meh, carry on. Wrong call.
I’ve walked this trek and your video is a waste of time you showed nothing of any merit 👎🙄😳😞
