Milford Sound Lodge, Milford Sound, New Zealand

This was our stop after our hike on the Routeburn with a plan to return to Kinloch via the Greenstone Track. Weather was quite bad, lots of rain (expected here), but also hail and snow at low altitudes. The hostel was unremarkable and the only one in the tiny town of Milford Sound. We had a very basic room with five beds and a shared bath halfway across the grounds. Ugh! Most convenient though was the “drying room” or room with a dry heat source used to dry wet hiking clothes. That helped us recover from the two days of steady rain on the Routeburn.
