Cycling the Round the Mountains Trail - New Zealand
The Round The Mountains cycle trail in New Zealand's south island is a stunning ride (180km) through some of New Zealand's most awe inspiring scenery. The part from Mavora Lakes to Walter Peak station in particular is absolutely fantastic. I love how wild this part of the trail is too. No shops, cafes, traffic or people. Just you and nature!
Temperatures got to well below zero for us on this trail, and at Mavora Lakes, my tomatoes froze solid, as did the tap at the campsite. But the sub zero temperatures meant frash snow on the hilltops, crisp clear days, and beautiful mountain views.
At the end of the trip, we got the Earnslaw steam boat across Lake Wakatipu back to Queenstown - which was a real treat (if very expensive!)
Possibly my favourite trail in New Zealand! Check out those views!!!

Queenstown to Arrowtown Mountainbike Ride
May 2016 we hired two electric mountain bikes from chargeabout bikes in Queenstown New Zealand. We rode from Queenstown to Arrowtown on a gorgeous Autumn day, had lunch and then rode back. On the cycle trails between Queenstown and Arrowtown there are quite a few hills but the bikes make short work of those. You get all the good bits of bike riding with none of the bad bits. It leaves you to focus on the scenery, which is spectacular. The cafe in Arrowtown has a recharge station so you can top-up your bikes while enjoying lunch. Queenstown is simply gorgeous and exploring the region by bike has got to be one of the best options, if you are ever visiting contact chargeabout.co.nz
