Motueka is the closest town to the Abel Tasman National Park. It's also on the doorstep of Kahurangi National Park. These parks & the surrounding Nelson and Tasman regions offer opportunities to tramp (hike), swim, dive, sail, cruise, horse-ride, motorcycle, parachute, abseil, go caving, quad biking, kite surfing, cycle...
TRAMP, walk or hike New Zealand's famous Abel Tasman Coastal Track
Or if those activities don't appeal, then there's always relaxing on the golden Kaiteriteri sands, perusing the arts and crafts, the pottery trails, vineyards, wine tastings, fine food, restaurants, cafes and cinemas. The Tasman and Nelson regions have so much to offer, you'll wonder how you'll fit it all in.
But we're here to help you try. At the White Elephant Backpackers, we're passionate about the Abel Tasman, Motueka and Nelson. We're keen to tell you about our area, activities, trips and beaches you should not miss.
