Wellington

Built around Wellington Harbour, Wellington grew into New Zealand’s capital region, while its eastern districts extend beyond the Remutaka Range into rural Wairarapa. This location lies in South Wairarapa, near Martinborough, where vineyards and sheep-grazing country spread across plains around the Ruamahanga River. Martinborough is recognised for Pinot Noir, giving the district a distinct food-and-wine identity alongside its open farmland and small settlements. Across the range, Wellington city is home to Parliament and the national museum Te Papa Tongarewa. Trace South Wairarapa’s place in the wider Wellington Region by browsing webcams nearby.
