Northwest Nelson Forest Park

The Northwest Nelson Forest Park covers 3760 sq.km of densely wooded mountain country extending from Tasman Bay (Motueka Valley) over the Tasman Mountains to the west coast (Karamea Bay). A number of trails run through this primeval landscape with its expanses of lush vegetation. The best known are the Heaphy Track (Abel Tasman National Park) and the Wangapeka Track (4-day walk).
