Mount Luxmore

Mount Luxmore, Mountain summit in Fiordland National Park, New Zealand.

Mount Luxmore is a summit in Fiordland National Park that rises to about 1,470 meters and offers views over Lake Te Anau and surrounding valleys below. The peak is surrounded by beech forests that cover the mountainsides.

Mount Luxmore is named after Philip Bouverie Luxmoore of Timaru; the name was given by James McKerrow, the surveyor who charted much of Otago and Southland. The 1,472 m summit later became part of the Kepler Track, whose high point is the slightly lower Luxmore Saddle at about 1,400 m.

The mountain's Māori name, Ō-te-horua-a-Te-Puhituia, is recorded alongside the English name given by James McKerrow, who honoured Philip Bouverie Luxmoore of Timaru. Walkers on the Kepler Track pass the Luxmore Saddle at 1,400 metres, where the dual naming is part of the mountain's identity.

The summit is reached via the Kepler Track, a popular walking route that starts from the control gates near Te Anau township. The best time to walk is from December to March when weather is more stable and conditions easier.

The mountain is home to keas, New Zealand's alpine parrots, which are often spotted on the walking paths and known for their curious behavior. These large birds are perfectly adapted to high mountain environments and rank among the country's most intelligent bird species.
