Browne Falls

Browne Falls are in Doubtful Sound, the deepest of all New Zealand fiords. A haven with its ancient rain forest and abundant wildlife it is quite simply and unquestionably breathtaking. Practically untouched by man, the physical grandeur of towering peaks, outstanding waterfalls (Browne Falls cascade 619 metres to the fiord near Hall Arm) and lack of wind create a powerful atmosphere of solitude and serenity. See Fiordland, crested penguins, bottlenose dolphins and New Zealand fur seals.

Doubtful Sound is the deepest of all the fjords, not to mention one of New Zealand's most memorable highlights. There are three distinct arms and several utterly breath-taking waterfalls. Helena Falls are a gorgeous and unforgettable feature of Deep Cove, and Browne Falls majestically plunge nearly 2,000 feet to the fjord near Hall Arm.
