We collect your group from anywhere in the North Island (South of Auckland) and make our way to the King Country and ride across to Taranaki around in a loop, back to the start.
This itinerary is an exploratory cycle tour. It takes in the Forgotten World Highway and backroads to the Taranaki Coast the Back through to the King Country.
This Itinerary is set for four days riding (plus a travel day to the start and return) and includes a mixture of sealed and gravel roads. We only graze civilisation, so will be fully self-sufficient during the tour.
Overview
