This view through window of Fiordland Park forest was taken on our way to Key Summit. This is part of famous Routeburn Track which if you would like to walk from very start to the end, takes about 3 days. However, our task wasn’t so ambitious but still quite challenging. Trip to the summit and back takes about 3 hours but it worth every minute. I’ve heard an opinion, if you do not have enough time to see all beauty of Fiordland National Park, and have to choose only one thing to do, this thing definitely should be visit to Key Summit. A few words about how to get there. The track starts on remarkable point called Divide. It is lowest pass trough Southern Alps. When you are driving to Milford Sound you just can’t fail to spot that place. You’ll find very convenient car park there, fresh water supply, toilet and shelter. If you don’t have a car, you might easily get there by bus and came back the same way. The track starts right there and leads through amazing forest to the summit. From the 919 m summit you can see the Hollyford, Greenstone and Eglinton valleys, mountains and lakes. I am going to share with you more photos from that place in a nearest future and hope you will enjoy indescribable beauty of that place as much as I did. The mount you see on that photo is Mt Lyttle (on a foreground), 1896 m hight and Mt Gunn (on a background, with snow on top of it) 2050 m.
