Sounds or Fiords? A 'sound' is a river valley that has been flooded due to the land sinking below sea level. Fiords are created by glacial action that produces u-shaped valleys with steep cliffs, also characterised by shallow entrances that slope quickly seaward to deep water.

Early Europeans exploring the Southern Coast line bestowed the names of Sounds onto these dramatic valleys, the mistake can be understood when you realise that many of these early sailors were of English and Welsh extraction and were not familiar with fiords.

Winter: June, July, Aug. Milford Road can be affected by avalanches, it's advisable to book the coach/cruise or landrover/cruise option.
