Mackinnon Pass
Mackinnon Pass (often erroneously spelt McKinnon Pass) is the highest point (1,154 metres above sea level) on the Milford Track between Lake Te Anau and the Arthur Valley in Fiordland National Park, which is in the Southland Region of New Zealand. Europeans didn't discover it until 1888 Quintin McKinnon and Ernest Mitchell and a memorial to the discovery stands in its place today. Mackinnon Pass is also the site of a short-time/emergency shelter along the track.
