Is This Ride Suitable For Me?

This ride is perfect for riders wanting to enjoy stunning scenery, great wine, and a relaxed day exploring the Queenstown Trail network.

Please ensure you:

  • Are comfortable riding 15–25 km at your own pace
  • Have a basic level of fitness
  • Are prepared for some gentle hills and gravel trail riding
  • Allow enough time to enjoy winery stops before your return shuttle

For a more relaxed experience, especially if you plan on stopping at multiple wineries, we recommend hiring an E-bike.

Riding With Kids

This is a great family-friendly ride for confident young riders who are comfortable riding the distance.

Children hiring E-bikes must be at least 140 cm (4 ft 6 in) to fit our smallest frame.

Families looking for a shorter ride may prefer one of our Arrowtown or Gibbston Valley options.

Weather

Central Otago weather can change quickly, and trail conditions are assessed on the day of departure.

If conditions are unsafe, we’ll contact you to discuss rescheduling your booking or arranging a refund (less any applicable transaction fees).

If you have concerns about the weather, give us a call before your ride and our team can talk you through your options.

Before You Ride

  • Dress in layers as conditions can change quickly
  • Bring water, sunscreen, snacks, and suitable clothing
  • Allow time for winery stops and scenic photos
  • Consider an E-bike for a more comfortable ride
  • Bring a small bag for any wine purchases
Please Note: The Kawarau Gorge,  The Big Day Out, Arrowtown to Queenstown and The Hugo Tunnel Loop rides are all not recommended  for children due to their distance and terrain.

Child Electric Bikes (8-14 years)

We have 24″ or 26″ E-Bikes. Children must be at least 135 cm/4 ft 6″ tall and capable riders.

Child Mountain Bikes (5-14 years)

We have  16″, 20″, or 24″ bikes; or XS, S, M adult bikes.
