Tasman's Great Taste Trail
A roughly 200 km loop linking Nelson, Māpua and Motueka, with wineries, breweries and orchards along the way.
The Great Taste Trail is one of New Zealand's “Great Rides”, covering about 200 km. Most of the route is flat, and you can ride it in sections, whether for a day or several days. A classic one-day stretch runs Nelson–Richmond–Rabbit Island–Māpua, about 35 km, with stops at wineries, breweries and cafés along the way. The southern section passes through the historic Spooners Tunnel. Several rental shops in Nelson offer e-bikes and luggage transfer services.
