An epic human powered journey from the west coast to the east crossing the mighty Southern Alps

This epic 4 day journey takes you coast to coast from the Tasman Sea on the west, over the Southern Alps to the shores of the Pacific Ocean on the east. 

Discover NZ's most diverse and remote landscapes through dense rainforests, over rocky mountains, between towering gorges, and along rural plains by bike, foot and raft. 

Our experienced guides will lead the way over the iconic Goat Pass and down the Waimakariri River Gorge - with our support vehicle never far away on the bike stages. 

Character-filled towns, atmospheric accommodation and friendly welcomes are all part of the package, as is the passion and local knowledge of our crew.

Join us on this classic Kiwi challenge and tick off this bucket-list adventure.
