Southland Region Essentials

Southland encompasses the dramatic landscapes of Fiordland National Park and Stewart Island. This region features the glacial-carved Milford and Doubtful Sounds, the prehistoric petrified forest at Curio Bay, and the southernmost point of the South Island at Slope Point. Key highlights include the bioluminescent Te Ana-au Glow-Worm Caves, the 151-meter-high Stirling Falls, and the Waipapa Point Lighthouse, which marks the site of one of New Zealand’s most significant shipwrecks.

Wilderness Huts & Shelters

Southland’s backcountry features a network of Department of Conservation (DOC) huts and private lodges essential for navigating Fiordland, Stewart Island, and the Takitimu Mountains. These shelters range from large serviced huts on Great Walks like the Kepler Track to remote 2-bunk bivouacs on the Dusky and George Sound Tracks. Most provide basic amenities such as bunk beds, water tanks, and wood stoves, serving as critical refuges for hikers facing the region's unpredictable alpine weather.

The list also includes the reflective Mirror Lakes along the Milford Road and Lake Manapouri, known for its numerous islands and indented coastline.
