Located about 10 minutes south of Milford Sound, The Chasm is a worthwhile scenic stop along Milford Road. This short forest walk leads to a dramatic natural gorge where the powerful Claddau River rushes through smooth, sculpted rock formations. The force of the water has carved deep curves and shapes into the stone, creating an impressive and unique landscape.

The trail is an easy 10- to 15-minute loop, making it a quick but unforgettable stop on your way to or from Milford Sound.
