Cyclists' Paradise
If you love cycling – mountain biking, road cycling or cycle touring – you’ll find plenty to enjoy in Nelson Tasman.
Our trails are highly connected and provide rides to appeal to cyclists of a wide range of experience and fitness. It’s easy to start a spectacular day of cycling as soon as you hop off a plane from any of our main centres. Tasman’s Great Taste Trail and the Dun Mountain Trail are just two of the options for visitors to enjoy.
Nelson Tasman has been rated as a Gold Riding Centre by IMBA.
We have three purpose-built mountain biking parks – including one in spectacular Kaiteriteri. Sharlands Creek (Hira Forest), Fringed Hill, and Sunrise Ridge are just some of the riding options close to Nelson city.
