The Kepler Track, in Fiordland National Park, is a 67 kilometre, moderate walking track that takes three to four days to complete. It traverses lake edges, beech forest, alpine mountain tops and a U-shaped glacial valley.
The Kepler Track starts at the Lake Te Anau outlet control gates, 45 minutes walk from the Fiordland National Park Visitor Centre in Te Anau. Te Anau itself is easily accessible by road and has a regular bus service and a full range of accommodation options.
Most trampers start with a night at Mt Luxmore Hut, they are then in the best place to assess the weather for the next day's walking across the open tops and have most of the climbing behind them.
There are other activities you can do there, Fishing, Brown and rainbow trout are found in the main Waiau River and Forest Burn. The Iris Burn is a small river but ideal for fly fishing. A current fishing licence is required.
Best time to go is during October - May.
