Located in New Zealand's beautiful Nelson Region, on the northern tip of the South Island, you'll find Abel Tasman National Park. This stunning park is a car-free zone, ensuring a peaceful and immersive experience. To access the park, you can either hike from one of the various carparks (mentioned below) or take a boat. For those seeking a more extravagant adventure, chartering a helicopter or small plane is also an option (only in Awaroa). It's important to note that some parts of the park are privately owned, mainly in Awaroa Bay and Torrent Bay. While the locals are friendly, they kindly request that visitors respect their privacy and refrain from walking through their backyards. Don't worry, these areas are clearly marked, so it's easy to navigate and enjoy the park without any issues.
