The 120-mile drive from Nelson to Westport is full of great and varying sights, starting and ending with snow-topped peaks in the distance. You travel through densely forested areas, up narrow roads winding to the top of hillsides and then dropping down to the River Buller as it makes its way to Westport.
Stopped halfway for closer look at the water which is clear as can be. Very little traffic on the road, another common feature as we tour around though on a Saturday there is less commercial stuff about anyway. Broke the journey at Murchison and looked on briefly at a bowls match - a popular sport here. Dave
