Silver Fern:

Mountain bike holiday in New Zealand

Like a postcard at every turn, New Zealand boasts a diverse and staggeringly beautiful landscape of glaciated peaks, streaming volcanoes, rolling green hills, sweeping beaches, deep fjords and lush rainforests. This 12-day road trip departs from Queenstown in the South Island to Auckland and ends in the North Island. In between you’ll see a vast part of NZ, ride a mind-boggling amount of amazing singletrack, meet fantastic bike-addicted locals and hop in a boat shuttle and a helicopter on NZ’s highest drop. If you’ve been dreaming about the ultimate New Zealand trip wait no longer, Silver Fern is it.

What an adventure! Each day was vastly different and totally inspiring – from one end of NZ to the other.Catherine B.
