Twin Coast Cycle Trail NZ

We completed the middle section of the Twin Coast Cycle trail, 48km's from Okaihau to Kawakawa.

(*Tip, the trail consists of many small 'gates' to go through, which can make it difficult if you are carrying luggage or a trailer behind your bike. We came across a few different people that were struggling as they had to either remove every item of luggage to get through the gates, or lift trailers over the gates, which is not easy)
