Looking for Queenstown’s most scenic half-day ride? This self-guided adventure has it all - historic Arrowtown, river gorges, and the famous Kawarau Bungy Bridge - before rolling into the Gibbston Valley Winery.

Your journey begins with a scenic shuttle from Queenstown to Arrowtown, where we’ll set you up with a bike, trail map, and local tips. From there, follow the spectacular Arrow River Bridges Trail, crossing swing bridges and through dramatic river gorges until you reach the historic Kawarau Bungy Bridge (13 km). Continue into Gibbston Valley where your ride finishes at Gibbston Valley Winery — the perfect spot to relax before meeting your return shuttle back to Queenstown.

This relaxed 15 km ride is perfect for families, couples, or groups wanting to enjoy Queenstown’s trails at their own pace.

    Amazing trip! Superbly organised and explained. Staff are super friendly and helpful. The track is amazing and easy enough on an analogue bike. Steve was such a hero.

    Beautiful scenery. Would’ve been good to know ‘parts’ of the track that we should be aware of that’s curved and next to a cliff, especially with a 6 year old. Only recommended for younger kids who are used to riding 14km in a span of 2.5 hrs, as no electric bikes available.

    Great ride through the countryside. Ups and downs but doable. E bikes are a great option too! The winery was very nice.
