Waikato River Trails full map and guide highly recommend

New Zealand's spring, summer, and the autumn festival is the most suitable for mountain bike riding on the forest path sports time, riding on the mountain bike, not only can greatly expand the radius of the view but also can adjust the speed, so that the pace of browsing is completely in their own hands;

On New Zealand's North Island, there is a famous bike path in the Waikato area, in the heart of the North Island, with bike paths that run through the venatic grassland meadows and pristine forests, as well as plenty of wetlands and scenic leisure reserves. Unforgettable attractions include volcanic peaks and canyons, hydroelectric power stations and dams, suspension bridges, and riverside villages with cafes. A wealth of native creatures (including birds and plants) as well as a strong cultural and community spirit around the entire trail can greatly enrich the journey of cyclists.

How long is this bike path? More than 100 kilometers. Don't be afraid, though the distance is long, it doesn't make people have to ride it all (in a day); many people spend three or four days rolling the wheels forward and experiencing the beauty of nature.

What's more, most of the path is flat, and of course, there are a few terrains that are more challenging, so both juniors and senior friends can come here to find their own fun. More than 100 kilometers of bike lanes are roughly divided into five sections, with multiple landing points along the way, making it easy to provide custom journeys for most people's rides, while commuter ferry rides, accommodation, cafes, and bike rentals make logistics easy.

As mentioned earlier, the Wikato River bike path is divided into five sections; These lakes are not natural and are formed in lakes that converge after a series of dams built between 1924 and 1966;

Cyclists can ride in either direction, but for most parts of the road, cyclists spontaneously travel from north to south;

Riding on this more than 100 kilometers of bike paths, neither fear of poisonous monsters nor worry about entering the deserted place bicycle damage appeared "call every day should not call the ground not good" embarrassing scene. Rest assured boldly ride forward, along the way there are fellow people, tired, rest in place, eat, drink and drink not under the words. The 103km driveway can be completed in 2-4 days and local bike companies will assist in the "logistics" of transport and other related personal items;

More people choose "day trip", that is, only a part of this lane riding, turn a circle is also good, rented bicycles returned from another place, are free choice.

The five parts are as follows:

Karapiro (Pokaiwhenua Bridge—Arapuni Village/Suspension Bridge)

11.5km, Grade 3/intermediate, 1–2 hours。

Arapuni (Arapuni Village—Waipapa Dam)

34.6km, Grade 4/advanced, 3–4 hours。

Waipapa (Waipapa Dam—Mangakino Lakefront)

19km, Grade 4/advanced, 2–3 hours。

Maraetai (Mangakino Lakefront—Whakamaru Dam)

12km, Grade 3/intermediate, 1-2 hours (simplest paragraph)

Whakamaru (Whakamaru Dam—Atiamuri Village)

26km, Grade 3/intermediate, 2–4 hours。

There are cell phone signals throughout the bike path, and in the event of a cycling accident or accidental injury, there is no need to worry about not being unavailable to make a phone call. In addition, every other section has a toilet, do not have to consider whether it will be "stool everywhere" problem. Tickets? Nature is free, if you have your own bike, as far as renting a bike, about a few dozen pieces a day, it is not very cheap.
