There will be plenty of opportunities to take photographs, experience the varied landscapes and enjoy some of the hidden short walks through the National Park.

Day Three - Guests will again wake to a hearty cooked breakfast, before enjoying their a choice of one of New Zealand's Great Walks or exploring the Te Anau glowworm caves. Fiordland is known as the Walking Capital of the World, so what better way to enjoy this World Heritage Area than to set out on foot and experience the incredible scenery of the renowned Kepler Track. Guests will take on a three hour section of the track, stopping at a secluded beach on the shores of Lake Manapouri for a picnic lunch provided by Cabot Lodge, as well as a dip in the lake for those brave enough! Alternatively, guests can experience the unique phenomenon of Te Anau's glowworm caves. Guests will take a cruise across Lake Te Anau, before heading underground to float through the cave's internal waterway, staring up at the twinkling lights covering the winding network of limestone caves. The caves are accessible to all ages, and once inside the network of limestone passages, the caves are extremely spacious and comfortable to move through. Guests will return home after their day of exploring Fiordland's unique wilderness to canapes, drinks and their final evening meal, showcasing the best of the region's farm to plate cuisine.
