Napier's Rotary Pathway Cycling Adventure
Napier's Marine Parade is the starting point for this scenic 10-mile bicycling tour. Follow your guide as you pedal south along a dedicated walking and cycling path that follows the water and coast and forms part of the New Zealand Cycle Trail. Stop to view points of interest along the way and conclude your adventure on the banks of the Tutaekuri River. Cool your feet in the water and enjoy a light refreshment before transferring back to the port.

What you will see along the way:
Follow your guide as you pedal south on the wonderful "water trail"-a dedicated walking and cycling path that follows the coast and forms part of Nga Haerenga, or New Zealand Cycle Trail. Stop to view highlights and to enjoy spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and the cliffs of Cape Kidnappers in the distance. After approximately seven miles, you will turn inland at Awatoto and cycle on a raised limestone trail through market garden country, following the Tutaekuri River to the suburb of Taradale.

Snack:
Upon reaching Taradale, conclude your ride on the banks of the Tutaekuri River with views of the historic Otatara Pa Maori site high on the hill. Put your feet in the cool water and enjoy a light refreshment before transferring back to the port.

Special Notes:

The cycling portion of this tour is a total distance of 10 miles, is completely flat and gentle, so it is suitable for all riders of moderate fitness level. Bring sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat and a light jacket or sweater. Minimum age is 10 years.
