NZ - Nelson and Golden Bay MTB Long Weekend

Sometimes challenging and at times a bit technical, our Nelson and Golden Bay Mountain Bike Long Weekend escape is achievable by anyone with a reasonable level of single-track experience. With a focus on scenic and cross country trails we ride on a variety of single-track, farm tracks and 4x4 roads - starting in the hills & forests behind Nelson City and including the famous 'Rameka Track' which drops us down into stunning Golden Bay.

We spend our days riding through the spectacular scenery and fantastic tracks which Golden Bay is famous for finishing each day in our pick of the region's guesthouses and lodges with the ever-present hot showers, cold beers, local wines and food and at times quirky restaurants!
