Outside the Rutherford Hotel, Nelson wows first-time visitors as well as repeat travellers with its pristine beauty and plethora of choices of experiences. For adventure enthusiasts, there’s sky-diving, canyoning, whitewater rafting, ATV safaris, jetboat tours, mountain-biking and so on. There’s also gentler pursuits such as exploring the region on a cycle – it has several biking trails which lead to some truly epic sights. For first-timers, a visit to the Abel Tasman National Park is sacrosanct – from the village of Maharau, visitors can kayak, hike and cycle around the pristine coastline and admire the views. Oh, and a tour of the iconic Farewell Spit and its delicate ecology – that’s where the wallpaper (money!) shots of Nelson Tasmon are taken. Or just relax on one of the many beaches dotting the coastline – a book and a cooler of stubbies should sort out a good day.
