What you can expect

  • Experience either a half-day or full-day Electric Bike hire from central Queenstown. Collect your E-bikes from our shop (3 Searle Lane), where our team will give a full explanation how to use them. We'll also provide a detailed map of the trail and suggest a few route options for you to ride.

    From central Queenstown the trail follows the shores of Lake Whakatipu out to Frankton. From there the choice is yours: head out on the stunning Kelvin Peninsula Trail towards Jack's Point, or join the Twin Rivers Trail towards the historic Old Shotover Bridge. The wide, gravel trails are all off-road away from busy traffic. Expect to see amazing river gorges and mountain views while you ride.

    If you are a capable rider, we also recommend a 33km+ loop from our shop that includes the Shotover Gorge Trail (Hugo Tunnel).

    Our fleet of Electric Bikes are mostly made up of the Merida E-Big range. These pedal-assisted E-Bikes are perfectly suited for exploring the Queenstown Trail.

    Hire an E-bike and ride further, faster, and with less effort than just a regular 'analogue' mountain bike!
