This trail is hand built by 4th generation landowner Tom O’Brian. It’s a 27Km cross country loop around the top of the Slate mountain range. The trail winds it’s through Welcome Rock itself (a cool rocky outcrop) and along the historic Roaring Lion Water Races (features left behind from…
Coronet Peak – Rude Rock, Skippers Pack Track and Canyon A must do set of downhill tracks nr Queenstown. Descending from 1200m to 500m in about 10Km (depending on which track you take)! All with fantastic views. We parked at chain bay 3 and biked up the road about 35mins…
The Bridge to Nowhere ride is about many things, historical interest, beautiful bush, Whanganui jetboating, Whanganui canoe trip and the biking. And that’s what makes it so cool, all of these different aspects together in one experience. The biking track follows an old road. It originally gave access to remote…
The Old Ghost Road opened in Dec 2015 and is one of NZ’s longest single track rides @85Km. It’s a full on multi-day ride of technical grade 4 riding, big climbs and long downhills, impressive mountain ridge riding and excellent back country huts. Built by volunteers and by MTB’ers for…
This race is cool. It’s not easy but then again it’s very achievable. At 72km, the Colville Connection route is a loop around the tip of the Coromandel Peninsula, on both gravel roads and single track it takes in the best of the famous Coromandel coastal scenery. It’s only possible…
Contact Epic Race … 125Km of pure NZ mountain biking adventure around Lake Hawea So it begins, on a dark, cold, windy and nerve racking start line. The Epic race, and the 125Km around Lake Hawea await. It’s tough and endlessly undulating. A roller Coaster ride around a bloody big…
The Routeburn …. One of NZ’s Great Walks, a multi-day, 32Km hike through ever changing bush, meadows, alpine valleys, waterfalls and beautiful lakes. If you ever wanted to do one walk that gives you the best of what NZ tramping (what they call hiking here!) has to offer, then this…
Sticky forest is a cool and well managed collection of tracks a short ride away from Wanaka town centre. It’s the right sized area for having a play. Discovering tracks without constantly staring at a map, and yet still having the energy to find your way back to where you…
Throw back to my awesome hike up to Mueller Hut in Mt Cook National Park. This place is just outstanding on a clear day.
This is taken from Mt Oliver, the summit above the hut and looking over to Eagle Peak. Mt Cook is to the right, out of shot!
Mt Cook Village is a great destination for our post COVID adventures. The village needs support to stay alive and with views like this within a couple of hours hike, it should be on everyone’s bucket list!!!
Focus and look ahead, this is the only way I can stay upright in this K1!
This boat is also very special, a good friend of mine paddled this boat in the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal!
Back to the adventures! A day in remote native bush was just what was needed 🌴
Moerangi is an old favourite but this time the whole loop, no shuttle, so was a decent sized mission... the legs are definitely feeling it now!
