Now in its fifth year, the Wanaka Trail Ride is becoming a must on the trail ride circuit. Known for its all-abilities tracks set amongst the stunning scenery of Deep Gully, Long Gully and Lindis Peak Stations, this year’s Trail Ride will impress any new or seasoned rider. When is it and how can I register? The trail ride is on Saturday 30 March and you can find registration details at www.wanakatrailride.org. If you pre-register you get the added bonus of a cheaper entry fee, plus you can pick up your pack the day before, so no queues on the day, just rock up and ride! This year’s ride has brand-new trails, the same entry prices as last year, and a back-up day (Sunday 31 March).

Whilst the trail ride is a great day out for all-ages, including pee wee tracks for the little ones, it also raises money for Wanaka Primary School, Montessori Children’s House Wanaka and the local RSA. This fantastic event is completely run by volunteers who are always on the hunt for more ‘good sorts’. If you would like to have the opportunity to meet new people, have fun, see a spectacular part of the region, and get a good dose of the warm fuzzies from raising funds for local children, all you need to do is register online: wanakatrailride.org Go on, tune up your bike and book your spot for this epic trail ride!
