New Zealand’s cycle trails
New Zealand is developing a series of cycling tracks that once completed will form Nga Haerenga - New Zealand’s national cycleway.There are currently 15 projects - known collectively as ‘the great rides’ - underway, and these will open progressively as stages are completed.
The first fully-completed ‘great ride’ - the St James Great Trail, in the northern South Island - opened in October 2010. The 60km track, which follows river valleys and traverses the St James mountain range, is open from November until April.
In the Central North Island, keen cyclists can try two new cycleways that are part of the Ruapehu - Whanganui Nga Ara Tuhono trail. The Old Coach Road section is a family-friendly 11km day ride, while the longer two-day Mangapurua Track ride is for more experienced cyclists.
