About This Tour
From the historic charm of Arrowtown to the vineyards of Gibbston, this full-day biking experience blends scenery, wine, and adventure. Start with a shuttle from Queenstown to Arrowtown, where you’ll be set up with your bike, helmet, and trail tips before having time to explore the town or grab a coffee or brunch.

Covering around 25 km of undulating gravel track, the day is yours to enjoy.
At the end, relax as your shuttle collects you from your chosen winery in Gibbston Valley — the perfect finish to an unforgettable day.
