The Milford Road is one of the more dangerous public roads in New Zealand, with injury crash rates around 65% higher than the rest of New Zealand’s network, and a fatality crash rate of almost twice average (per vehicle kilometre travelled). Stopping is prohibited on long stretches due to rock or snow avalanche dangers, and the road is often closed in winter, with the carrying of snow chains mandatory during snow conditions.
\nThere are also no petrol stations on the whole length of the road from Te Anau to the Sound, meaning that vehicles need to take enough fuel for a return trip. Visitors are encouraged to visit the Sound via coach or aircraft.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Maar daarover straks meer.<\/p>\n

Maar gaandeweg kregen de wolken de overhand en ging de miezer over in regen. Hierdoor wel een mooie regenboog gezien. De grauwheid gaf het plaatsje een treurige aanblik. We stonden op een camping nabij het centrum<\/em>. Zo konden we lopende de laatste voorraden inslaan voor we de volgende dag naar Milford Sound vertrokken.\n\t\t
