What you can expect

A shuttle will transport you from Wānaka to Hāwea at 0900hrs, 1030hrs or 1230hrs. This is a 'self-guided' bike ride from Hāwea to Wānaka along the river trails. Your host will explain the route to be ridden on the shuttle out to Hāwea and will deliver a bike familiarisation, safety briefing and set your bike set up for you prior to you starting the ride. nzbiketrails recommends e-bikes on this trail. This route includes riding along the Hāwea River trails to Albert Town. Stop and enjoy coffee and cakes (not included) at Albert Towns' Pembroke Patisserie (closes at 2:00 PM). Return to the bridge and you then pick-up the the Clutha River trail and follow this back all the way to Wānaka, through the Outlet and into the town where the bikes will be picked up from you when you have finished your days riding. The latest pickup is 4pm. Enjoy a grade 1-2 family friendly ride that is 30km in length. On average there is 2-2.5 hours of actual riding with lots of time remaining to enjoy the views, take photos and experience and the local area. Choosing an e-bike will ensure that your group stays together and fully enjoys the experience. Your e-bikes can be ridden in 'Off' or 'Eco' for those riders that may not want too much assistance. E-bikes are recommended on this trail for all age groups. All bikes are designed and set-up for the trails including a 'day pack' on the rear racks. nzbiketrails uses well maintained Sinch e-bikes (an NZ brand designed specifically for NZ trails), Specialized Rockhopper Regular bikes and iLabb Gravel bikes (for experienced Gravel riders only). Enjoy an experience ran by passionate trail cyclists who make sure that you are set-up correctly on your bike and confident with your gears and assistance levels before you start the ride. Please ensure that you select the right type of bike from the options.
