Overview

Experience a journey like no other
Follow the trails blazed by the pioneers of yesteryear. You’re not just looking for another bike ride, you’re looking for an adventure and you’ll find that here. Pass through landscapes shaped by Central Otago’s history and experience the true charm of southern hospitality.
We don’t believe in ‘one size fits all’ around here. These trails are here to be explored in whatever way suits you. From a romantic getaway, to a family excursion, to an adrenaline-packed ride, it’s all here waiting for you in Central Otago.

For the Lake Dunstan Experience we will meet you at our Clyde Depot in it's historic heart. We will fully brief you on your world class trail e-bike. From here we will transport you to the Historic Precinct of Old Cromwell where you will start your adventure and ride the amazing Lake Dunstan Trail back to Clyde.

The Lake Dunstan Trail might be New Zealand's newest cycle trail but that doesn't mean you won't get the same historic views.
The 54km trail takes you on a journey from Pisa Moorings along the shores of Lake Dunstan to Old Cromwell Town.
When the Clyde dam was completed in 1990, Cromwell's main street disappeared under Lake Dunstan. Some of the historic buildings dating back to the gold rush of the 1860s were saved or lovingly rebuilt on higher ground, creating the Cromwell Heritage Precinct. Central Otago is home to some of New Zealand's best wine producers and the sights of the vineyards overlooking the lake are too inviting to ignore. Pull into a cellar door in the Cromwell Basin or Bannockburn, enjoy a glass and grab a bottle for later.
The final stretch into Clyde takes you through the glorious Cromwell Gorge. With sections built out around sheer rock faces, you won't find a trail quite like this anywhere else. The perfect end to your ride.

Christine is so good, as are most of the staff - excellent- although one disclaimer. When there was a miscommunication with our booking, discovered when luckily I checked in a day early, the two women behind the desk were most negative and quite disappointing to deal with. Good service would have it that clients would be reassured that everything that could be done, would. Christine’s cheery nature helped greatly to mitigate the problem.

A great day out, quite a challenge for a 80+ but very enjoyable. Fairly new bike with good tyres, brakes and powerful. However there were two negative points: No "step through" bikes available, they were all "hard tail" bikes. If you need "step through" check and maybe look elsewhere. Our bikes were not capable of taking panniers. On a hot day you don't want a rucksack on your back. Finally, arrive in sufficient time to make sure the bike is set up to fit you a well as possible.

The first half of the trail is easy and full of wonderful food and drink. The second half is technical. Our legs are sore the next day. What views! What fun! The bikes were in great shape. Hosts were friendly and knowledgeable.

This trail was the first part of a two week trip around the central Otago cycling trails all of which were organised by CCT. They were brilliant! This is the second time we have used the company (they were called Cycle Surgery, the first time two years ago) We were shuttled to Cromwell for the start of the ride after being fitted out with our bikes the previous day-first time we had used E-bikes so a little bit of trepidation there!! However, the bikes were easy to get used to and the start of the ride gave us plenty of time to work out how to get the best out of them. Unless you are exceptionally fit, e-bikes are the way to go and we didn't regret our decision. A wonderful experience but we had to be very attentive as parts of the trail are very narrow and there are a number of blind corners to negotiate. Nervous riders perhaps beware! All in all, a great experience. Whilst we initially thought that having done the ride once, that was enough. However on reflection i feel a second time is warranted just to enjoy more the scenery with more breaks .
