Description

Kaiterau Trail Up Trail. This trail goes through a Doc reserve, it winds its way through regenerating native forest arriving near 400 vertical meters with fantastic views of the Kaikoura Peninsula. The up trail is a shared use oneway walking and biking track with a gradient of 3 to 5 degrees, the down will be a winding intermediate bermed corner descent, again one way only. Linking town with our already created trail network, it creates a unique experience of riding from the coastal beaches to the alpine ridges of Mt Fyffe.
