The Spenser Mountains is a topographic landform in the northern South Island of New Zealand. Located at the southern end of the Nelson Lakes National Park and north of the Lewis Pass they form a natural border between the Canterbury and Tasman regions. Several peaks are named after characters in Edmund Spenser’s allegorical poem, The Faerie Queene. Many of the early explorers were evidently literate men. For example, Frederick Weld (a surveyor) named Lake Tennyson; William Travers (a solicitor) named the Spensers and Faerie Queene; Julius Haast named Mt Una.

| - Die Spenser Mountains sind ein Gebirgszug im Norden der Südinsel Neuseelands. Die wichtigsten Gipfel sind Mount Una und Mount Humboldt. Ein großer Teil des Waldes in dem Gebiet besteht aus Südbuchen mit einem Unterholz aus Farnen und Sträuchern. Der Farn ist eine der dominanten Arten der Farne im Unterholz. In dem Gebirge selbst gibt es keine Siedlungen oder Straßen. Der nordwestliche Teil des Gebirges befindet sich im Nelson Lakes National Park. Flüsse, die in den Spenser Mountains entspringen, sind der Waiau Toa / Clarence River, Mātakitaki River, Maruia River und Wairau River. (de)
