15-days of power-packed adventure, biking your way around the scenic wonderland that is New Zealand's stunning South Island.
Experience first hand the diversity of sparkling lakes, steep alpine passes, the grandeur of breathtaking mountain views, sweeping pastoral landscapes, rainforests, glaciers and even biking past seals basking on rocks by the ocean!
Starting from Christchurch, we bike south to the adventure capital of Queenstown to enjoy a free day, then we head up the West Coast to northern Portage, returning via Kaikoura to Christchurch!
This itinerary takes you across rarely accessible public and private lands to experience the incredible natural beauty of New Zealand! Be charmed by the very special West Coast, cross the rugged Southern Alps via the majestic Nelson Lakes and cycle the awesome single trails of the beautiful Queen Charlotte Sound.
This is, for very good reason, one of our favourite trips ever!
