Tasman, Nelson, South Island
DESCRIPTION:
This camp will accommodate around 50 people in an area which is popular
with mountain bikers, trampers and cavers. It is also the main access-way to
the 176 metre marble shaft known as Harwood’s Hole. “Canaan Downs” is
central to some of the South Island’s most popular holiday spots including
the Abel Tasman Kahurangi National Park and Golden Bay and is well worth
a stopover for anyone just wanting a lovely spot to camp.
