Details of the Buller River area through to
Nelson region for your use to find where to go, what to do.
One
of the most beautiful parts of New
Zealand. I consider the Buller River
probably one of the finest in the world for scenic wonder and for river
sports. The drive is spectacular
especially along the lower Buller prior to Westport. You will have a
few heart rendering spots
when taking a large vehicle through here. Quite safe.... just
different.
The
road twists and turns and
narrows but all is well maintained and marked. Some good places to stop
for photos and also river access plus a few for overnight stays.
Murchison
is a small town but if you want to see a bit of history and
have a meal
stop in the centre of town at the Commercial Hotel. You will not be
disappointed.
It is a great place to explore the area with the Buller River offering
a lot of activities and a number of walks.
This is the heart of river kayaking.
The place to stay the night and enjoy the area is the
Riverview
Holiday Park . Make sure you check out their new cafe right on the
river.
42
kms toward Westport is a small junction named Inangahua. In the
centre of town is an old building
with just a sign on it "earthquake". Be sure to stop here. It is a
must.
It is about the most understated
interesting historical information I have ever seen!
