Ride from historic Arrowtown into the heart of Gibbston wine country on a guided e-bike adventure combining spectacular Central Otago scenery with boutique wine tasting. Follow riverside trails, cross impressive suspension bridges and cruise through mountain-framed countryside with the help of a pedal-assisted e-bike, before finishing with a hosted tasting of celebrated Central Otago wines.

Pedal from Arrowtown to the Vineyards of Gibbston

Begin in Arrowtown before setting off along scenic trails beside the Arrow River, where quiet countryside and mountain views make the journey as memorable as the destination. Your e-bike provides pedal assistance along the way, making it easier to settle into the ride and enjoy the changing landscape. Cross historic suspension bridges and follow the trail towards the Kawarau River, with a stop at the famous Kawarau Bungy Centre adding another unmistakably Queenstown moment to the journey.

Continue into Gibbston Valley, where vines stretch across a dramatic landscape framed by rugged Central Otago mountains. The cycling portion of the adventure gives way to a hosted winery tasting, with the opportunity to sample wines from boutique Central Otago producers and appreciate why this cool-climate region has earned an international reputation. With a guide leading the way and shuttle support available, this four-hour experience brings together cycling, scenery and wine in a distinctly Queenstown way.
