Cycling

Being on the Canterbury Plains means our eastern cycle trails are mainly flat, making them perfect for individuals and families. Use the trails to take you into our towns where you have plenty of choices to replenish after or during your ride.

Plan your adventure and learn why you should bring your bike.

Cycling in Waimakariri is not just about the ride. It's also about what you see and do along the way. Enjoy our trails to indulgence taking you from our beach settlements to our towns and cafes.

Head to the eastern side of the district to enjoy over 60kms of trails.

Bored with the flat? Head to the hills and take your ride to new heights in Mount Oxford and Mount Richardson. These rides are subject to track conditions.

You can get between our towns and places by using our urban connectors. If coming from Christchurch then enjoy the accessibility of the Christchurch Northern Corridor.
