Kick off an unforgettable half-day adventure with a shuttle from Queenstown to Arrow Junction (7 km past Arrowtown). There, you'll be fitted with a bike and briefed for your afternoon of exploration.

The ride begins with a scenic 6km (4 miles) stretch along the Arrow and Kawarau river gorges, crossing the Edgar Swing Bridge and passing the iconic Kawarau Bungy Jump Bridge. From there, continue into the Gibbston Wine Region, cycling a total of around 17 km (11 miles) of undulating gravel trail. Choose from 6+ wineries, a gin tasting spot, or a tavern, typically enjoying 3 stops, sometimes 4, along the ride.

Enjoy tastings knowing our shuttle bus will collect you at the confirmed time, directly from your chosen winery. Perfect for visitors short on time, this ride combines spectacular scenery, a little exercise, and some of the region’s finest food and drinks — a true Queenstown escape!

    The trail was beautiful! Would probably not call it easy though - I am a very active person and still found this more challenging than I would’ve thought. Probably would’ve gone for an ebike. The first winery was awesome! Second one was alright, the bus ride home was torture though. There were girls yelling at the top of their lungs and the bus driver did nothing to improve the situation.

  • Best day ever!!

    Loved the sceneries, although some parts is a bit scary for amateur riders like myself. The path could be a bit wider

  • A great fun way to sample some local wines
