The New Zealand wine-growing region of Marlborough is famous all over the world, and Blenheim is the area’s largest town. The town maintains a friendly rivalry with close neighbour Nelson for the title of New Zealand’s sunniest town and is a wonderful choice for a holiday or break. Blenheim is on the Opawa and Taylor Rivers in the country’s South Island. Walking and hiking are popular in the surrounding countryside, and the Wither Hills Bike Trail is a must for mountain bikers. There are trips available to local vineyards, and there is even a cycling tour which takes around 4 hours and is suitable for all levels of cyclists. The history of the region is well-documented at the Marlborough Provincial Museum at Arthur Baker Place, and aviation fans are in for a real treat at the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre. Peter Jackson who is well-known for the Lord of the Rings films is associated with the aviation centre, and his Weta Workshop team has created a spectacular display for the collection of World War I planes. Visitors can catch a game of rugby at Lansdowne Park, or just take a stroll in Pollard Park just off Parker Street which is beautifully landscaped.
