Otago Rail Trail Classic
Reisroute
Ervaar de volledige breedte en diepte van de oorspronkelijke Great Ride van Nieuw-Zeeland tijdens onze volledig begeleide tocht over het Otago Central Rail Trail. Je zult genieten van gemakkelijke ritten op dit pad dat speciaal is gemaakt voor fietsers, wandelaars en paarden. De route volgt de oude aftakking van Clyde naar Middlemarch en voert je langs weidse landschappen, spoorwegerfgoed en charmante plattelandsstadjes. Onze deskundige gidsen laten je de beste bezienswaardigheden van de route zien, zoals relikwieën van de goudkoorts, architectonische juweeltjes en verbazingwekkende natuurwonderen. Er is zelfs een kans om de oude kunst van curling uit te proberen op de enige overdekte ijsbaan op het zuidelijk halfrond. Naast de Otago Rail Trail kun je genieten van een opwarmrit op de Queenstown Trails en een slotrit op het prachtige Otago Peninsula. Er is ook een mini-wildlife cruise op onze laatste middag, met de mogelijkheid om het zeeleven in de Otago Harbour van dichtbij te bekijken, waaronder de Koninklijke albatros, kuifaalscholvers, sterns en de Nieuw-Zeelandse pelsrob, als de omstandigheden het toelaten! We beginnen in Queenstown en eindigen in Dunedin met onze laatste overnachting in Lanarch Castle, het enige historische kasteel van Nieuw-Zeeland dat op de heuvelrug van het Otago schiereiland is gebouwd.
