The permanent Lady Bowen Falls is Milford’s highest waterfall at 162m. Not only breathtakingly beautiful, without it Milford Sound couldn’t operate; with it being the sole source of power and water. She quadruples in volume during Milford’s epic storms – one of the best ways to truly enjoy the falls is to stand on the foreshore to feel the spray. In Maori, the falls are known as Hine Te Awa meaning ‘girl on the river’ after the lower third of the falls that resemble the plumage of the Te Kereru bird (NZ Wood Pigeon). #tuesdaytravels #nzdiaries #nzvacations #milfordexperience #naturalwondersoftheworld #l4l #like4like #follow #yourheart (at Milford Sound) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bh8JS8jl--t/?igshid=1qzedsitzelzi
