The Milford Trek
About halfway through our trip in New Zealand my family and i decided to do a four day trip through the Fjords of NZ. The trek was called The Milford Trek. When we first started the trip I was tired and covered in bugs within the first ten minutes! I wasn't to happy about that but i kept going. The trek was a total of four days of trekking up and around mountains. We began our trip walking through the more forest like area of the trek and we passed various huts along the way. After the first day of hiking the guide gave us a talk on proper walking shoes for us to be hiking. The most exciting part of the night was all of the freeze dried food like mac-and-cheese and noodle dishes of all sorts. On the second day, nothing really special happened but the next day, we came upon a "slight incline" which wasn't very slight at all. If i were to hold up my hands and show you how steep this incline was i would probably over exaggerate and put them at a 45 degree angle. toward the endish we climbed a mountain which was difficult but definitely worth it. The view was spectacular merging on magical!!! More next time.
