A 6-Day Cycle Tour with world class scenery on 3 of New Zealand’s most spectacular trails
The Lake Dunstan Trail, Roxburgh Gorge and Clutha Gold are 3 of New Zealand’s most spectacular cycle trails. We combine them into an action-packed 6 day adventure following the mighty Clutha (Mata-au) through a series of massive canyons as the river carves it’s way toward the sea. The scenery and trails are world class, with some amazing cantilevered engineering to bridge the steep gorge walls and chasms. With boutique accommodation, fabulous food and Escape by Cycle’s top class service, the Clutha Canyons is without a doubt, one of the world’s most spectacular bike tours.
