Fiordland Lakes & Waterfalls

Fiordland National Park's landscape is defined by its dramatic water features, from the 462-meter depth of Lake Hauroko to the 580-meter drop of Sutherland Falls. This collection includes the iconic Stirling and Bowen Falls within Milford Sound, accessible by boat, and the roadside Mirror Lakes known for their reflections of the Earl Mountains. The list also highlights the tiered Humboldt Falls in the Hollyford Valley and the secluded Lake Manapouri, which hosts the West Arm hydroelectric power station.
