Snow in May

by TRACKed | May 9, 2014 | the Routeburn Track

They say it never stays… But be prepared out there on the New Zealand trails. It’s an alpine environment and the weather can be remarkably different to what the season tells you it should be, or what it’s like back in town.

check the weather!

The NZ Metservice has the most accurate and up-to-date weather conditions for the tracks and trails around Fiordland National Park.

It is an alpine environment and conditions can change very very quickly. Don't be caught out - make a plan, prepare well, and check the weather.
