Nelson Travel Guide

Nelson, in the northwest corner of the South Island, is sheltered by stunning mountain ranges - giving it an almost Mediterranean feel. Aside from year-round sunshine, golden beaches, national parks, boutique wineries and a large artistic community; Nelson is a fantastic spot to enjoy kayaking, rafting, mountain biking, horse riding, 4-wheel driving and more!
