Cycling offers a rewarding way to experience New Zealand's landscapes, with trails passing through alpine valleys, native forests, vineyards and coastal regions. The New Zealand Cycle Trail connects many of the country's scenic areas, while destinations such as Queenstown, Wānaka, Rotorua and Central Otago offer a variety of riding experiences.
Whether on an e-bike or a mountain bike, cycling allows guests to cover more ground while staying closely connected to the surrounding environment. Rides can be tailored to a range of interests and abilities, from gentle journeys through wine regions to multi-day adventures in remote parts of the country.
