Welcome to the Maitai Valley Motor Camp!

A picture of the Maitai Valley Motor Camp.

Located just minutes from the city centre, we offer affordable camping in a bush-like setting with a variety of activities to suit your taste. Take a walk along the river, go mountain biking on the many trails in the surrounding hills, or take a dip in the nearby swimming hole.

For only $10 per person (non-powered), you can use our kitchen/toilets while camping under the stars amongst the beautiful native trees. Nature at its best.

So come, relax, and enjoy all that the Maitai has to offer!

*The Maitai Valley Motor Camp also makes a great base for exploring Nelson City. Check out our Activities page for more info.


Fun fact: The name 'Maitai' is known to Maori as Maitahi, referring to the black pine said to have previously grown on the banks of the river.
