    Milford Sound is not actually a sound but is a fiord by definition. A fiord (or fjord) is a valley which has been inundated by the sea as the result of glacier eroding the valley floor below todays sea level. Milford Sound is the most accessable of 14 fiords in the Fiordland National Park and one of the most spectacular.
