Wellington
The capital, the Wairarapa coast and Kāpiti.
About this region
Wellington
The Wellington region wraps the capital with the rugged south coast, the Kāpiti shoreline and the Wairarapa's rivers and wine country over the Rimutaka hill. Campsites are coastal and riverside; the wind the city is famous for is part of the deal.
