Get a group of friends together and lets go riding with a Qualmark Gold accredited trail company - your satisfaction is guaranteed. Our normal $250 Queenstown pickup charge will be waived for all rides until the end of September 2024.


Private Hire includes an nzbiketrails Guest Experience Manager (GEM's) to host the day and drive you as required. You choose the trail and we provide everything else - including the luxury transport, a pickup of your party from a single location (Wanaka or Queenstown), e-bikes and all the equipment required. The only things you need to remember is your weather appropriate clothing to keep you cosy (its all about layers!) and a bottle of water to drink along the way.


From both Wanaka (and Queenstown) we can offer the following rides:

  • The Lake Dunstan Trail - This is a favourite. 42km of Grade 1-3 riding. Probably the best one-day ride of all of NZ's Official NZ Great Rides. nzbiketrails is an Official Partner of the Lake Dunstan Trail and this NZ Great Ride which means that we actively donate back to the trail for every rider that we take. We can pickup your party in Wanaka, or Queenstown, for this trail (single pick-up location). 
  • The Best 50km of the Otago Rail Trail - This will include the Poolburn tunnels and Chatto Creek - the Chatto Creek Tavern is a great stop before heading off further if you want to. Lots of opportunities to shorten the ride for parts of the group along the way if everyone doesn't want to ride the full distance - up to 50km of easy beautiful riding.
  • Wanaka and Hawea Trails - We have a great couple of rides over in Wanaka including the Gladstone Track along the front of Lake Hāwea, down the Hāwea River Trail to Albert Town, a quick coffee and cake stop (not included) at the Pembroke Patisserie before heading up the Clutha River along the trail all the way back to Wanaka - Visit the one of the five most photographed trees in the World, #thatwanakatree, and then finish up at the Edgewater Hotel bar for a celebratory drink - please note: food and drink is not included. Please note this could be a long day from Queenstown as nzbiketrails are likely to travel around the base of the ranges (90 minute drive) rather than crossing the Crown Ranges due to the risk of snow at higher levels. If you are staying in Queenstown we would recommend one of the other three rides.
  • Roxburgh Trail - This is not normally possible to ride during Winter as the Jetboat transfer is closed. This trail is a stunning ride at any time of the year and we will work with the Dunstan Explorer Boat to manage your transfer along the trail. We can upgrade this package to include a boat transfer between Dr's Point and Shingle Creek. This means that you can now ride the full Roxburgh Trail in Winter. Our Winter boat partner will share a bit of history along the way. The boat has a covered front to ensure that the wind stays off you and you enjoy your experience. This means the Roxburgh Gorge is now rideable any day of the year including the winter.


On both the Dunstan Trail and the Roxburgh Trail, for an additional cost we can upgrade your party to our Ultimate Products on each trail. This would include a boat return on the Dunstan Trail and a boat connection on the Roxburgh Trail. The additional cost of adding a boat connection, or return, on this offer is $120 per rider. Please select Boat Upgrade on each booking if required. If no boats are needed please just skip this step. The Dunstan Trail does not require a boat to complete the trail - this is an optional upgrade. The Roxburgh Gorge Trail does require a boat to complete the trail as there is a 14km of the route that requires a boat transfer from Dr's Point to Shingle Creek.
