Geraldine artist John Badcock shares his top tips for visiting this South Canterbury town.
Geraldine gets its charm from the mountains, rivers, forest and art. It is a small, quaint town within the Canterbury Plains, surrounded by braided rivers.
It is a special place to visit because of its tight-knit community, and its shopping area and eateries, galleries and riverwalk are in all in close walking distance. Talbot Forest and the Four Peaks mountain range is right on our doorstep. The town is also a stop-off spot for travellers on their way through to Mackenzie Country, Central Otago or back to Christchurch.
