Walking and driving instructions

 

There is only one way to approach these waterfalls - walk the Milford Track (only DOC individual walks and guided walks are available. DOC huts must be booked in advance).

You need to organize a transport to Te Anau Downs where the track starts; then a transport from Milford Sound where the track finishes. Transport can be easily booked as part of Milford Track booking via official DOC site.

Anderson Cascades are approached on the third day of the journey, but there are other waterfalls which are accessible along Milford Track.

The upper Anderson cascade (one the main photo) appears just a few minutes past Jervois Glacier Waterfalls. A viewing platform, kindly provided by DOC, gives you a chance to relax and spend a few minutes enjoying the main waterfall.

From here, long wooden stairs lead you to a few (at least 4) lower waterfalls. Enjoy the walk, beauty of the cascades and the river.
