Around The Mountains Cycle Trail Information & Booking Site

Guided & Independent Cycling Adventures

The Around the Mountains Cycle Trail is a mountain bike and cycle trail funded as one of the projects of the New Zealand Cycle Trail system in Southland, New Zealand.

This trail allows cyclists an opportunity to explore and discover some of New Zealand's most secluded and rustic rural settings at a relaxing pace without sacrificing the comforts of home. Those eager to be transported back in time will appreciate the many historic townships and relics left behind by the region’s pioneers. Along the way you can expect to be welcomed by charming locals, served mouth-watering meals and told stories about the beautiful places they call home, all while experiencing real, heartland New Zealand. 

On November 1st 2010 we began operations of our one day guided and independent cycle ride products. The day ride offers cyclists a small taste of what's to come with our premium 5 day/4 night guided ride set to kick-off next summer (November 2012).

Please note that our one day guided cycle ride kicks off for this summer season on 1st October 2011.

This Mountain Bike Cycle trail will be a cycle riders dream trail in Queenstown
