1 Day 35km - Cromwell & Bannockburn Wineries

This 1 day bike ride is a leisurely day out, with approximately 35 km cycling combined with some wonderful Central Otago wines.

Meeting at the Kiwi Journeys Cromwell depot, you'll be given a briefing on your bike, trail conditions, options on cellar doors to visit and directions to get you on the trail.

Ride Itinerary:

• Initially, the riding takes you alongside Lake Dunstan, before reaching Cromwell Heritage Precinct just 2.5 km away.
• Leaving the precinct, you ride alongside the Kawarau arm of Lake Dunstan through rolling terrain on an excellent trail, before reaching Bannockburn Bridge after 8km.
• Turn left and ride 3km to Carrick Winery, which is an excellent venue for coffee, pizza and wine on their expansive lawn.
• Retrace your steps to Bannockburn Bridge, then continue on to Felton Road to visit Mt. Difficulty, Te Kano, and Terra Sancta, all with wonderful views and just a further 2-4 km riding.
• Plan your lunch stop at Mt. Difficulty, Te Kano or Carrick Wineries.  An alternative option is Black Rabbit Café or Bannockburn Hotel in Bannockburn. 
• For the return journey, you may like to ride the roadside trail back to Cromwell direct, and visit Scott Base Wines (just to the west of Cromwell), and Mischa’s, Pisa Range and Wild Earth Wines, all close to our depot.
