Arrowtown to Gibbston Valley
Start your adventure with a 25-minute shuttle from Queenstown to historic Arrowtown. From here, ride 14 km of scenic trail following the Arrow and Kawarau Rivers, crossing six bridges — including three spectacular swing bridges — as you wind through dramatic gorges and vineyard country. The wide gravel trail is mostly gentle and undulating, making it suitable for all abilities and a great option for families.
Your ride finishes at a cellar door in Gibbston Valley, where you can relax and take in the atmosphere before meeting your return shuttle back to Queenstown. With well-signposted trails, plenty of photo stops, and the option of an E-bike for extra ease, this ride is the perfect way to explore Queenstown’s wine country at your own pace.
