Description
This self-guided ride of the Gibbston Wine Valley begins with a scheduled bus departure from Queenstown to either Arrowtown or Arrow Junction*. We'll get you fitted to a bike or E-bike (select electric bikes at the cart for the extra assisatnce on the hills, noone regrets it!), and briefed on the navigation by our experienced team.
The bike trail follow the beautiful Arrow and Kawarau rivers, crossing over suspension bridges, to the Kawarau Bridge, home to the world-famous bungy jump. From there spend the afternoon biking at your leisure along the Gibbston River Trail, using our informative map to visit as many of the wineries linked throughout this smooth-riding bike trail. Enjoy a relaxed lunch en-route at one of the many venues on offer.
Youll then be collected by the scheduled bus service at the location and time given in the briefing on the day, this will take you back to Queenstown.
