The Nelson Tasman region boasts a remarkable combination of alpine and coastal landscapes, with stunning bays, blue lakes and picturesque plains nestled amongst mighty mountain ranges.
Lake Rotoiti is the main access point for many of the walks that dissect the Nelson Lakes National Park, including the Travers-Sabine Circuit and Lake Angelus, but many of the area’s ‘hidden gems’ are actually within easy reach of the lake itself, including Whisky Falls.
The Maruia Falls resulted from a devastating earthquake in the Murchison township in 1929. A landslide in the Maruia Valley diverted the course of the Maruia River, forcing it to cut a new channel over an old riverbank.
Located on the outskirts of Nelson City, Queens Gardens is a destination for city workers, visitors and locals looking to escape from the hustle and bustle and be amongst nature for a while.
Nestled amongst the sweeping granite coastline of the Abel Tasman National Park, Anapai Bay is renowned for the majestic rock stack formations at its northern end.
