Roxburgh Gorge + Clutha Gold Cycle Trails | New Zealand Great Rides

The middle section of the trail is not accessible by bike and cyclists need to take a 12km boat ride down the river before continuing on the trail.
Date Cycled: February 2022
Duration: 2 days

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thanks for watching Edward!

[@waterfallmadman]

Very good ride. The cat was hilarious 😂

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thank you, it was such a good ride!
The cat was in rough shape 😅

[@RobinCapper]

Great video, rode it back in Feb and loved it. Don't think the Clutha Gold gets the acclaim it deserves

[@ChrisandDanya]

I think all the Central Otago Cycle Trails should get more love! It's such a beautiful part of the country

[@saskia959]

I thought from watching I would be more intested in that than the Rouxbourough, how do you even spell that....? 😅

Beautifully filmed as always. Doing it next month and can't wait! Any tips?

[@ChrisandDanya]

Can't really think of any tips tbh!
The Roxburgh Gorge section is definitely the highlight, it's very beautiful so take your time and enjoy it.
The jetboat ride is 45 minutes - an hour, so if it's not a very hot day, maybe put on a wind breaker to keep warm.

@@ChrisandDanya thank you!

[@eladgabay]

very beautiful content! try the Cascade Saddle Route

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thanks Elad!
We did do the big climb up from Aspiring Hut, but failed to make it all the way to the Cascade Saddle as we ran out of time/legs were shot haha
We'll have a video up about that eventually!

[@snowbike8032]

Thank you! You camped one night on the trail? So it took you two whole days? What is the total length that was ridden?

[@ChrisandDanya]

Yep took 2 whole days, 107 km in total

[@snowbike8032]

˙How did you get back to your car?

[@ChrisandDanya]

Organized transport from Lawrence back to Alexandra. It was pretty expensive, but we were the only people so essentially private and it is about a 1.5 drive back, so price is understandable
