About
Cycle Nelson – Effortless Adventure
Three bases, one region. With bases at Tāhunanui Beach Holiday Park, Kaiteriteri and Nelson Airport, it's easy to start your ride wherever your journey begins, whether that's flying in and riding straight onto the Great Taste Trail or heading for the golden sands and trails of Kaiteriteri.
The Great Taste Trail, your way. Guided single-day tours celebrate the region's food, wine and landscapes, from Māpua Wharf and Spooners Tunnel to boutique wineries, craft breweries and the Family Fun Loop. Self-guided multi-day tours along the 200km trail come with full support, luggage transfers and local insight.
Mountain biking for every rider. Guided and self-guided MTB options explore world-class trails including Kaiteriteri MTB Park, the Coppermine Track and Old Ghost Road, with heli-bike and bespoke experiences for those wanting to ride from mountaintop to bay.
Hire and shuttles. Bike and e-bike hire is available from all three bases, with shuttles across Nelson Tasman, including airport luggage and accommodation drop-offs.
Better together. Collaborations with Paddle Nelson and Wilson's Abel Tasman, through combined experiences like Paddle & Pedal and the Abel Tasman Great Taste Trio, have helped Cycle Nelson grow and evolve over its 15 years.
Whether you're a casual cruiser, a food and wine lover or a keen mountain biker, Cycle Nelson is the effortless way to explore sunny Nelson Tasman.
