Pedal the stunning coastal cycle trails of Hawke's Bay on a premium e-bike, rolling through sun-drenched vineyards to a clifftop winery with Pacific views. This is Hawke's Bay at its most exhilarating — wind, wine, and world-class scenery under your own (electric-assisted) power.
What to expect
You'll be fitted with a premium e-bike and helmet before setting off along the Cape Coast Trail, a dedicated off-road cycle path that traces the Pacific coastline through vineyards and orchards. The breeze, the views of Hawke's Bay, and the rhythm of the ride are genuinely invigorating. A midway stop at a clifftop winery for a guided tasting of estate wines is the undisputed highlight — sipping Syrah with the ocean below is a memory that lasts. Guides are knowledgeable about both the trail and the region's wine story.
Good to know
Half-day tours run approx. 3–4 hours. E-bikes are suitable for all fitness levels; no prior cycling experience required beyond basic balance. Helmets and safety briefings are provided.
