Move over, Norway – and behold Fiordland in New Zealand.
If you’ve never heard of this national park, on New Zealand’s South Island, then you won’t know that it’s one of earth’s most staggeringly jaw-dropping wildernesses.
But here MailOnline Travel will acquaint you with this 3.3million-acre primeval landscape via a set of eye-popping photographs (and if you already know about it, you’ll know you’re in for a treat).
Before you gaze upon them, Steve Norris, owner/operator of Fiordland Trips and Tramps Ltd, is here to build up the excitement.
He says: ‘Fiordland is one of the very few “True Wilderness” areas left in the world. At 3.3 million acres in size with only one public road going into it, there are places where man has never set foot. Once described as the “Antarctica sitting on top of the Amazon”, it’s a diverse landscape of lush rainforest down low, to remnants of glaciers, and towering mountain peaks above. Fiordland really is a must-see for anyone interested in dramatic and awe-inspiring landscapes.’
