Description

Mitre Peak is an iconic peak nearby Milford Sound.

To access the peak you must kayak 2km from Milford Sound to the base of the peak. There is no real track at first up through very steep bush but a faint track forms on the ridge which gives way to some fun class 4 rock scrambling on the summit crest. 

Incredible views all around from the summit of the sounds and Fiordland Mountains.

Back down the same way. Watch for swell in the afternoon return.
