The Best Way to Get Around New Zealand

Traveling to New Zealand? Invest in a bike. There’s no better way to explore NZ than by this mode of transportation.

NZ is full of open road and serpentine twisting routes along the shoreline. Get ready for steep climbs, fast descents and the odd albatross to keep you company.

Most towns and cities have bike shops, repair shops and also hire options. For better quality bikes you are best heading to the larger towns and cities but most places will be able to help you on your travels.

While the main roads provide great scenery and easy access, the off-road possibilities tend to really excite most cyclists. With huge varieties of terrain and some of the most spectacular backdrops you could imagine its an excellent option to see the natural beauty of New Zealand. The South Island offers some of the best cycle routes in the World (arguably) and the North Island has some excellent paved back roads. The main highways are the busiest roads to cycle on and traffic does get busier through the summer months.

So travel to New Zealand and bring along your bike!
