At the top right of the South Island is a region sporting enviable climates, diverse landscapes, sheltered waterways, superb seafood and fabulous valleys of vines known as Te Tauihu-o-te-waka or Marlborough.
The southern section of this land is mountainous, lending itself to some great outdoor walks and pursuits in the Kaikoura Ranges. There are long straight valleys along the Wairau River and large, wide, fertile plains surrounding the heart of the wine-growing region and the city of Blenheim.
Offering up 1500km of coastal magnificence, Marlborough Sounds is a collection of ancient, sunken river valleys, forested hills and intricate coastline and a perfect place to relax and spend some time exploring the great outdoors.
Here you can enjoy one of the great walks of New Zealand by taking on the Queen Charlotte Hike, Queen Charlotte Adventure or the Nydia Track Hike and Cruise. Explore all Marlborough has to offer below.
