Our trail is Grade 1 which is the easiest of rides and is suitable for adaptive bikes. If you have any queries, please send us an email admin@otagocentralrailtrail.co.nz
The trail has been completed by many people who are not able to ride a standard bike and there are now e-trikes available for hire along with tandem bikes etc.
There are gates across the trail in places to allow access beside the 800 mm wide cattle stops. All these cattle stops are being widened in May 2025 to make them all 1400 mm wide.
The Tiroti bridge between Daisybank and Hyde requires a short detour off the trail. There are also chicanes along the trail and these have all been widened to meet the NZCT Cycle Standards. il.
If you have any queries, contact your Cycle Operator Tour or email admin@otagocentralrailtrail.co.nz and we may be able to arrange a key from DOC to assist with gates where required.
