TROUT FISHING • DEER HUNTING • TRAMPING • ADVENTURE

Trout fishing – on your own or guided by foot, boat or helicopter
The Nelson region boasts the “most consistent” fly fishing in the country. The area offers an excellent variety of clear streams and rivers, magnificent lowland and back country settings in pristine and relatively untouched environments. Triple Tui self contained accommodation is accessible to the best fly fishing rivers in the region and Steve is available to take you on day excursions or longer if required. We have a boat (for guided trips only) which enables access to the more remote spots, plus we can organise a helicopter pick up from Triple Tui right beside your cabin.
Contact Triple Tui self contained accommodation for guided fishing trips. (Fishing licence is required)

Hunting – guided day trips, local multi day hunts, north island trips
Steve is an ex deer culler and has many years experience hunting Sika deer in the North Island – Kaimanawa, Kaweka, Tararua and Ruahine Ranges plus Red deer and Chamois in the South Island. He is available to take you hunting for day trips or longer, in and out of the roar. Triple Tui has a boat (for guided trips only) which gives access to the more remote areas plus helicopter pick ups can be arranged from the property.
Contact Triple Tui Bed & Breakfast for local and North Island guided hunting trips.

Tramping / walking
Triple Tui Bed and breakfast accommodation is situated on the border of the Kahurangi National Park. Created in 1996, Kahurangi – meaning treasured possession – is one of New Zealand’s newest and the 2nd largest National Park at 452,000 hectares.
There are more than 570 km’s of walking and tramping tracks in the park. The more popular, longer walks include the Heaphy track and the Wangapeka track, but there are short walks available at most road ends. Entry to the park can be gained from Triple Tui’s Riverstone cabin and just a 10 minute drive gives you access to tracks up to the Lookout Range, from there you can view Mt Owen and get magnificent views over the valley. There are also come lovely short bush walks on the property.

River walks / swimming holes
The Hope River is a gentle flowing, tea coloured river which runs through Triple Tui, right by the Riverstone cabin. There are many access points where you can wander at your leisure up-river and view old railway bridges, have a picnic, view stunning waterfalls or swim in the clear, cool pools.

Nelson Lakes National Park
Nelson Lakes National Park protects 102,000 hectares of the northernmost Southern Alps. The park offers a quiet experience of tranquil beech forests, craggy mountains, clear streams, fields of tussock and lakes both big and small. A network of short walks explores the glacial features and forests. Longer tracks climb up through beech forest to viewpoints high above Lake Rotoiti. Talk to Steve about some of the amazing places he has walked to in the Park and which walks will best suit your fitness level.

Abel Tasman National Park
Whether you're looking for an active day of tramping and kayaking, or a lazy day at the beach, Abel Tasman National Park is perfect. It is New Zealand's smallest national park, protecting 23,000 hectares of the most natural stretch of easily accessible coastline in New Zealand. Activities range from 3 hours to 8 hours in duration and this can be arranged from Triple Tui if you wish.
