The Gulliver River is a river in the Fiordland area of New Zealand. It starts in the Darran Mountains on the north slope of Mount Talbot,[1] and flows north and then west into the Cleddau River, which runs into Milford Sound.[2] The river was named in 1906 by W.G. Grave for Alf Grenfell, who had a nickname of "Gulliver".[3] A track along the Gulliver River from the Cleddau is suitable for day walks in summer and autumn[4] and can be extended on the Grave Talbot Track into the Espereance valley, past the Script error: No such module "convert". high De Lambert Falls and over the Grave Talbot Pass.[5]
