Rail Trail in a Day – Central Otago’s Greatest Ride, Done Right This is no ordinary ride — it’s your chance to experience the most iconic stretch of New Zealand’s original Great Ride in a single, unforgettable day. After transferring from the Central Cycle Trail Co base in the historic Clyde Village you start your adventure from remote Auripo Road, where the Central Otago high country opens before you. Ride through the legendary Poolburn Gorge, with its dramatic rock bluffs, historic rail tunnels, and sweeping viaducts. Soak in the charm of Lauder, admire the historic bridge at Ophir, and stop for a bite in Omakau. Pedal past vineyards, rivers, and rail relics as you glide toward the Chatto Creek Tavern, where a cold drink awaits, before cruising the final stretch into Alexandra and finishing in scenic Clyde. We’ve taken care of every detail — shuttle transport, premium e-bikes, maps, and support. This is the best way to tick the Rail Trail off your bucket list, no matter how much time you have.

5.00We had the most wonderful time doing the "rail trail in a day"! The Central Cycle Co team were all super friendly, informative and efficient. We even got to ride a little extra at the end of the day, as we chose the rail trail to return to Clyde instead of the river loop and the friendly lady at the shop said, “Well if you are up to some more riding, why not go for just another 3 or 4 kms so that you can see the beauty of the river loop section”. We were so grateful for her generosity as the river truely is spectacular. The whole rail trial offers some spectacular views and ever changing landscapes. It was also super cool to have the opportunity to go through 2 historic tunnels as well as over many historic bridges. My partner is an engineer and he was like a kid in a candy store looking at all the old construction and marvelling at the historic engineering methods. I on the other hand, I was particularly fond of interacting with the friendly donkeys at Chatto Creek and both of us just repeated the phrase “wow, it’s just so beautiful” multiple times throughout the day. If you are comfortable on a bike and up to a 56-60km bike ride, we cannot recommend this ride highly enough. Even though the trail is long, all of the riding is super easy, as it is relatively flat with no steep climbs. It is an amazing way to take in the scenery while you just cruise along on your awesome e-bike. It was by far one of our favourite activities on our summer trip to the south island.
