Located in the spectacular Fiordland National Park, the dramatic Hollyford Track wilderness experience is one of the greatest guided walks in New Zealand.

Explore undisturbed and inspiring scenery that has remained largely untouched for thousands of years, from the snow capped mountains of the majestic Southern Alps, ancient native rainforest, pristine rivers and lakes to the remote sand dunes, reef and surf of the rugged West Coast.

Your expert guide will bring to life the diversity of landscapes, vegetation and wildlife within this beautiful valley, as well as the captivating stories of the original Maori and early pioneers. The experiences are just as diverse and include hiking through 'World Heritage Area' wilderness, native wildlife encounters, wilderness jet-boating, exploring historical sites, and a scenic flight to Milford Sound.

On this 3 day / 2 night all inclusive guided nature walk experience you'll enjoy cuisine prepared and served by our friendly lodge hosts while relaxing in our well appointed and comfortable private lodges. A maximum number of 16 people in your group provides for a personal experience, and with your guide sharing their intimate knowledge of the area with you, it’s a wonderful way to explore the very essence of New Zealand’s wilderness.

If there is one experience that delivers the diversity and very essence of New Zealand wilderness - it is with out a doubt, a guided walk through the Hollyford Valley. Here you’ll marvel at ever changing scenery from towering mountains to pounding coast and everything in between, explore an unspoilt wilderness with giants of an ancient forest and native wildlife, discover your sense of adventure and find inspiration around every corner. For a truly unique experience join us on the Hollyford Track guided nature walk adventure and 'Journey Into The Most Beautiful Valley In New Zealand'.
