Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Vi kører 30 minutter fra East by West kontor i Wellington ud til begyndelsen af Remutaka Rail Trail til Wildfinder Kaitoke. Herfra vil du blive breifed på stien og hvordan cyklen fungerer, før du tager af sted på dit selvstyrede eventyr!
Ride fra Wildfinder Kaitoke til begyndelsen af dit Remutaka Rail Trail eventyr. På stien begynder du med at cykle gennem den indfødte fuglefyldte Pakuratahi Forest. Følg en gammel jernbanelinje over broer og gennem tunneller, mens du pauser, hvis du vil, for at tjekke informationstationer, der detaljerer den enorme opgave med at bygge "Fell" jernbanesystemet - en første for New Zealand på det tidspunkt, og en af kun få rundt om i verden. Når du når toppen, vil du stoppe for en picnic frokost på en stor græsplateau ved siden af resterne af en historisk station. Efter frokost, nyd en ophidsende (men let kontrollerbar!) nedstigning til Cross Creek i Wairarapa, med udsigt over nogle af New Zealands fantastiske landbrug hjerte. Følg landskabet til Featherston og vi vil se dig på Royal Hotel.
Vi afhenter dig på Royal Hotel i Featherston, før vi transporterer dig tilbage over Remutaka ranges, ned ad Hutt Valley og tilbage til Wellington (tilbage ca. 3.30 pm tilbage ved East by West færge kontor på Meridian Building, vandkanten 55 Lady Elizabeth Lane, Queens Wharf, Wellington 6011)

Great ride and an easy track thanks to the pedal assist eBikes
Hey Lewis, thanks for taking the time to leave a review! It was great to meet you. Hope you're enjoying the World Cup and good luck on what you decide to do next year :) Cheers Isaac
We did the 3-day loop trip including the coastal piece from Ocean Beach to Orongorongo. We had excellent bikes, packed lunches, accommodation and a very well put together map package for self-guiding. The Wildfinder crew are super. We had brought a head torch for the tunnels, but that was unnecessary as all bikes had their own one mounted on the handlebar which is much better. Definitely get comfortable with walk mode on the e-bike as you will need it during the last kms along the beach. It's the hardest section and wouldn't be for everyone, but if you like a challenge or are a cyclist leave yourself enough time and I really enjoyed the full ride.
Hey there :) Thank you for taking the time to leave your review! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the trip, especially the Wild Coast section on the last day. It’s definitely the most adventurous part of the trail and a real achievement to complete so well done! It's great news that the bikes, lunches, accommodation and self-guided map pack all helped make the trip smooth and enjoyable. Thanks again for riding with us and for taking the time to share your experience. All the best, Isaac
Wonderful! Definitely recommend! Beautiful ride, good lunch, great communication. This was our favorite experience in New Zealand.
Hi Alish, so glad you had a great time out on the trail last week! I've passed your comments on to Isaac and the team :) Awesome to hear it was your favourite experience in NZ!!
Excellent and very fun full-day experience! We were picked up on time at 9:30 am at the Wellington Railway station and driven about 30 minutes to Kaitoke where we were outfitted with our bikes, helmets and a fabulous box lunch and water before we hit the beautiful trail. The scenery was gorgeous, just a few other bikers so we often felt we were all alone. Several tunnels and the swinging bridge were quite fun! Picked up in Featherston and driven back to Wellington arriving around 3pm.
What a great ride and operator, on time pick up from station and then a 45 minute drive to the start of the trail. Bikes were excellent, as was the boxed lunch. The self guided cycle is easy to follow with some stunning views, tunnels, swinging bridge and best of all an exhilarating downhill finale. Thoroughly enjoyed the cycle and the e-bikes made the hills easy. Highly recommend you book this trip, it was fun and gives you a buzz when you get to the car park at the end of trail, great company and people.
This was truly amazing. Such beautiful natural landscapes, tunnels and bridges to encounter. All make it for such an exciting ride. Using the e-bikes made it a little easier but of course the option to use the power of the legs. Alex was very helpful and made sure we were equipped with the knowledge and goods to enjoy this ride. She was very kind. Definitely an activity to put on the bucket list
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the stunning landscapes, tunnels, and bridges along the ride—it really is a special experience. Great to know the e-bikes helped make the journey more accessible while still giving you the option to challenge yourself! We’ll be sure to pass your lovely feedback on to Alex—she’ll be delighted to hear she made such a positive impact on your experience. Thanks again for recommending us, and we hope to see you back for another adventure someday!
Incredible experience all around. Would recommend it to those who love biking and the beauty of the outdoors. Our tour guide, Isaac was the best and took good care of us.
Hey! Thank you very much for taking the time and leaving a review.. it was an absolute pleasure to have met you both. I'm so glad you loved the ride and trip over the weekend. All the best for the rest of your trip :) Cheers Isaac
Awesome adventure thru a beautiful area! Thanks to Sam we were set up for a safe & super fun ride and a picnic lunch.
Hey Linda We're thrilled to hear you had a fun ride! I've passed onto Sam (Tex) that you enjoyed the day and we hope you are inspired for more adventures to come :)
We really enjoyed biking through the hills on the e-bike. We saw nature up close and also biked into a nearby town. The boxed lunch provided as part of the tour was delicious!
Hey Julie, we're glad to hear you enjoyed riding the Rail Trail! Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review ans hsare your experience. All the best and we hope to see you again in the future :)
Beautiful countryside, despite driving rain at some points. More effective initial “enabling” for the uninitiated cyclist would be helpful…in places the track is narrow, stony and steeply downhill. E-bikes are extremely heavy and difficult to control in unfamiliar conditions, especially in oncoming traffic or unlit, uneven tunnels. None of these factors were adequately explained before we were sent off. Remember, there’s no guide accompanying you, so you’re on your own. Not all the pre-loaded information is clear e.g. the toilets at the summit point. However, my husband is a cyclist and had an utter blast, couldn’t wait to go again! Personally, my biceps, quads and knuckles were totally destroyed for several days afterwards from my stressful grip…but I survived.
Hi Claire, So sorry you didn't enjoy the ride as much as your husband! eBikes are heavy unfortunately and if you're not used to cycling it's definately worth having a bit of practice on. We're always happy to jump in and help out though if any extra help or in-depth briefing is needed so that you're confident when you set off on the trail. We do provide lights for the tunnels, but agree these can create a bit of a challenge to inexperienced riders. Thank you so much for the 4 star review though, we're glad you got to enjoy some of the beautiful countryside! -Alex
