Day Three West Coast Cycle trail
A challenging day today. It all started so differently when we got high into the canopy of ancient Rimu and Kamahi at the Treetops walk. This spectacular 500 metres self-guided walk along the elevated platforms 20 metres high was a great start to the day.
Cycling the 317-metre climb to Kawhaka Pass is a challenge but once again the Wilderness Trail made it as easy as possible with plenty of unique scenery to distract and a huge investment in switchbacks and bridges. The highlights for me were the stunning Arahura River and then winding through the mountain-beech forest with its stunning trees and streams.
Nevertheless, there was heightened sense of camaraderie amongst us over dinner tonight. There is nothing like sharing and conquering a few challenges to make strangers become friends. We had done good.
Our guide is fast reaching god-like status. Not only did the low morning cloud disappear as we started today’s ride, but the decision also to start from Lake Kaniere rather than Kumara before tackling the pass was pure genius. Then to cap it off, he arranged for a tailwind for the most of the final 20km. Thanks again fella.

Day Two West Coast Wilderness Trail
The longer I stay in the West Coast the more I realise how much I have missed out in the past.
Today we were guided to Lake Kaniere, a beautiful expanse of water surrounded by bush clad hills with two snow-capped peaks just visible at the southern end. The water was surprisingly warm, but I think we would have gone for a mid-morning swim anyway as the weather was perfect – sunny and warm with a gentle breeze.
Cycling there did include our first “hills” of the tour although some would argue they were not quite long enough to qualify as such. However, all the off-road tracks were yet again professionally maintained with a gentle gradient, through cool forests and the perfect choice for another relaxing ride.
Thanks to the expert knowledge of our guide, we enjoyed a diversion off the Wilderness Trail along a quiet road to Dorothy Falls and a leisurely, mostly downhill cruise to a West Coast Pub, just in time for lunch followed by a drive to the historic Hokitika Gorge.
Thanks again to our guide Peter for another memorable day.

West Coast Wilderness Trail: Day One
A blissful day’s cycling. A leisurely ride from the historic mining town of Ross to Hokitika on an almost cloudless blue-sky-day with temperatures in the mid-twenties and a gentle offshore breeze that made the Tasman Sea sparkle.
The track itself was flat to gently undulating, following the old rail-trail through cool podocarp forests. The skills of our guide also played a huge in making it such an enjoyable day – taking away all the hassles from arranging accommodation and setting up our bikes, to making sure there were plenty of fresh snacks to keep us going. Life is good.
