Overview

5 hours

Mobile ticket

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 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 - by reading the information boards along the way.

Additional Info

Cancellation Policy

What To Expect

Cycle one of NZ's Great Ride Routes from Cromwell to Clyde on one of our brand new fleet of bikes. After the ride we then return you to the start point (where you left your car) by our luxury transport. A 42km ride on an excellent Grade 1-3 trail. The surface is very good compacted gravel. Our recommendation is that riders choose our e-bike option. There is 25km of the trail without any road access. This is a self guided bike ride so you are free to move along the trail at the speed of your own group. Riders should be 10 years and older (our oldest rider so far has been nearly 80), fit and confident on a bike. You will see from the photos that this is a great trip for family and friends. The e-bikes allow you to choose your own 'assistance' levels (including 'off') which ensures that no-one has to put in too much effort or is left behind trying to catch up! With great places to stop along the way including Carrick Winery, Burger & Coffee Afloat and finishing by buying a quick celebratory drink in historic Clyde before your shuttle 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.

    When you have to choose a bike company do choose NZBIKETRAILS ! Good communication, very good and comfortable bikes, friendly personnel. They really take care of you without being present. If anything happens on the trail you can call them for assistance. The Lake Dunstan trail is absolutely fabulous ! We have been cycling a lot all over the world but this one is really very very nice. Don’t miss it! And go for NZBIKETRAILS!

  • A windy day

    Great organisation and top marks to Tristan who gave us all the information at the start and was there for us when we finished. Challenging in parts made slightly more difficult with a strong north-west wind, glad we were doing the ride Cromwell to Clyde. With the wind gusting to over 50kms, it would not have been pleasant going the other way. Another tick in our completed box!

  • Fantastic service, great bikes, stunning trail

    NZ Bike Trails delivered an exceptional experience from beginning to end. The team was friendly, professional, and made everything incredibly easy. Their bikes were high quality, comfortable, and clearly well maintained, which made the ride smooth and enjoyable. The trail itself was stunning, with beautiful scenery and plenty of spots to stop for photos or take in the views. Everything was well organised and thoughtfully planned, so we could simply relax and enjoy the day. I highly recommend NZ Bike Trails to anyone looking for a memorable, scenic cycling adventure. We absolutely loved the whole experience.

  • Exhilarating ride through dramatic scenery

    This was one of the most amazing things we did on our first and only trip to New Zealand - couldn’t recommend it more! The lupine and wild thyme were in full bloom scenting the hillsides and adding to the beauty of the dramatic scenery. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive to needs that came up while we were on the track. The bikes were super comfortable and easy to use, especially for me as a first-time e-bike rider. Couldn’t recommend this trip and this company enough!
