Otago Central Rail Trail
The Otago Central Rail Trail offers you an adventure back in time. Cycle or walk through 150km of some of New Zealand’s most stunning scenery and revel in fascinating New Zealand gold mining history.
The trail follows the former Otago Central branch railway line, meaning relatively flat gravel tracks. A reasonable degree of fitness is required, and it is recommended that those biking the trail allow at least four days, due to the rough surface. Walkers should allow at least a few days more.
• Open year-round
• Public reserve owned by the people of New Zealand
• Free to use
• Developed by the Department of Conservation
