  • Take your time exploring the quaint village of Arrowtown
  • Ride the trails that the locals love while enjoying stunning scenery

Prepare for a great time out exploring the Queenstown trails!

Check in to our shop in central Queenstown where you'll be met by local knowledgeable team before departing on a scenic 20 minute drive to Arrowtown. Once in Arrowtown, you will be fitted to your bike, given trail tips, a map and safety briefing before you are set free on your adventure!

You may choose to enjoy a pre-ride coffee or brunch and a look around the quaint village of Arrowtown before setting off to ride at your leisure along the Arrow River Bridges Trail toward Morven Ferry Intersection. From here either take a diversion to the Kawarau Bungy or follow the Twin Rivers Trail along the Kawarau and Shotover Rivers to the shores of Lake Wakatipu and onward to Queenstown Bay where you can return your bike. This is a great day out exploring Queenstown and the Queenstown Trail. This trail is a purpose built off-road biking trail. Average biking time is 4 hours, allow longer if you go to Bungy and if you want to enjoy stops along the way.

Recommended for fit, confident and regular riders. We do recommend an electric bike upgrade for this ride. Average ride time takes 3.5 hours seated in the saddle. Children must be minimum of 10 years old.

So wonderful!

I decided to sign up for this pretty last minute and it was one of my favorite days in Queenstown! I had wanted to get out to Arrowtown and this was the perfect chance to see the town and then have a stunning ride back to Queenstown. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bike was great. And, the ride was so beautiful. I loved that it was self paced and you could make stops if you wished along the way. I have already recommended it to friends!

Around the Basin on a perfect day.

From booking to pick up, transport to Arrowtown along with a fun pre ride brief and directions from Josh we had a fun filled day. We had one ebike and three standard bikes all of which were in great condition and were able to return the bikes to delightful staff after a day we would all happily recommend.
