Looking for Queenstown’s most scenic half-day ride? This self-guided adventure has it all - historic Arrowtown, river gorges, and the famous Kawarau Bungy Bridge - before rolling into the Gibbston Valley Winery.

Your journey begins with a scenic shuttle from Queenstown to Arrowtown, where we’ll set you up with a bike, trail map, and local tips. From there, follow the spectacular Arrow River Bridges Trail, crossing swing bridges and through dramatic river gorges until you reach the historic Kawarau Bungy Bridge (13 km). Continue into Gibbston Valley where your ride finishes at Gibbston Valley Winery — the perfect spot to relax before meeting your return shuttle back to Queenstown.

This relaxed 15 km ride is perfect for families, couples, or groups wanting to enjoy Queenstown’s trails at their own pace.
