Overview

This trail travels alongside Lake Dunstan on the opposite side of the lake to the road that travels between Cromwell and Clyde.

The engineering involved to create this trail is stunning with 450m of clip-ons attached to the rockface in places, the Hugo Suspension Bridge plus a very good trail surface throughout the ride.

The views and scenery on this ride are fantastic and you can fully understand the history of the area - from the goldrush to the building of NZ's largest dam - from the information boards along the way.

The Dunstan Explorer Boat return is a brilliant way to return back up the lake and explore areas of the trail that you would not have seen from your bike.

Our company actively works with the Dunstan Explorer to deliver outstanding experiences for our guests.

Activity itinerary

Our company is a Qualmark Gold accredited Operator. Cycle one of NZ's Great Ride Routes from Cromwell to Clyde on one of our brand new fleet of bikes. After the ride you then return to where you left your car on the Dunstan Explorer Boat. Luxury shuttles required are included. A 42km ride on an excellent trail - with a very good surface. We strongly recommend selecting the e-bike option. Regular bike riders should be a fit cyclist (regularly riding) and easily able to complete the Trail. This is a self guided bike ride. You will move along the trail at the speed of your own group. Riders should be 15 years and older (our oldest rider so far has been nearly 80), fit and confident on a bike. This is a great trip for family and friends. The e-bikes allow you to choose your own 'assistance' levels (including 'off') ensuring the group stays together along the trail. With great places to stop along the way including Carrick Winery, Burger Afloat and a quick celebratory drink in historic Clyde before your shuttle and boat back to Cromwell. Single Riders will be waitlisted. If you are a single rider we will contact you as soon as possible to confirm your booking.
