With almost continuous rainy days, Milford Sound is home to many temporary and permanent waterfalls. The largest permanent fall is the famous Lady Bowen Falls, located at the southeast end of the sound, north of the wharf. Named after the wife of Sir George Bowen, one of New Zealand's earliest governors, this stunning waterfall drops 160 metres from a hanging valley in the Darren Mountain Range.
