Weather event: 28/8/26

Heavy rain has caused some damage to the Queenstown Trail between Arrowtown and Arrow Junction.

 

For the next few days, Bike The Wineries – Full Day and Arrowtown to Gibbston will start around 7km beyond Arrowtown, closer to the wineries, avoiding the damaged section. You’ll miss Arrowtown, but the ride itself is as good as ever!
