Self-guided and supported cycle tours run right across Hawke’s Bay’s winery network, using a mix of standard bicycles and e-bikes fitted for various fitness levels. Options span from day outings like the 19-kilometre Cape Coast Winery Tour visiting up to five cellar doors, to the Pub, Gin, and Winery Midday Tour with shuttle transfers, and packaged rides combining cycling with an Ocean Spa soak. For longer breaks, they organize two- or three-day self-guided Baycation trips as well as Hawke’s Bay Uncorked, an all-inclusive, fully supported multi-day food and wine escape for small groups of up to ten riders.
Having dedicated route planning and end-of-day winery pick-up services removes the logistical headaches of cycling between tastings along the regional trails. Base operations run from Nelson Quay along the waterfront in Ahuriri, alongside an additional hub on Marine Parade directly behind Ocean Spa in central Napier. Both day rentals and multi-day packages can be arranged directly through their website. Our pick in Ahuriri for an effortless, wine-focused pedal across the Bay.
