2023 - HAL Noordam Cruise #1 - Auckland to Sydney. - Fiordland National Park - Milford Sound - 8 of 9

            Late in the afternoon 01 April the Noordam visited Milford Sound in New Zealand's Fiordland National Park.

Milford Sound is the jewel of the park and is the only fiord in New Zealand accessible by road.

There are only 2 permanent falls in the sound fed by glaciers from above, Stirling & Bowen.

The mighty Stirling Falls is the second largest permanent waterfall in Milford Sound. 

The fall drops 155 metres from a  U-shaped hanging valley carved out between Elephant and Lion Mountains.

The fall is fed by glaciers situated in the mountains behind. 

The waterfall is named after Captain Stirling, who sailed the HMS Cleo into Milford Sound during the 1870s.

The park is part of Te Wahipounamu, a 1990 designated UNESCO World Heritage site.
