Have you embarked on the Milford Track yet?
The Milford Track, an Intermediate Level hike located within Fiordland National Park, spans over four days and takes hikers through the heart of this stunning landscape. One of the highlights of this 53.5km long trail is the third day's journey over Mackinnon Pass, which brings hikers into an alpine environment.
This alpine section can be challenging and requires preparation for harsher conditions, particularly in exposed areas. Safety knowledge is essential for this part of the journey. A video, part of the Alpine Tramping (Hiking) Series, is available to aid in preparation for the alpine section of the Milford Track.
The video covers important safety tips, including following the NZ Land Safety Code and monitoring local weather conditions. It's crucial to be well-prepared to face the unique challenges that the alpine environment presents.
The third day of the Milford Track involves a long, steep climb over Mackinnon Pass. This part of the hike can be physically demanding, but the breathtaking views at the top make it all worthwhile.

As always, it's important to note that the search results do not provide the name of the leader or guide of the group exploring the Alpine sections of the Milford Track in the video. Always ensure you are guided by a professional for a safe and enjoyable experience.
