The Hawke's Bay Trails are cycling and walking tracks in the Hawke's Bay region of New Zealand's North Island.

The Hawke's Bay Trails, which are in turn part of Nga Haerenga, the New Zealand Cycle Trail project, are made up of three distinct sections – the Landscapes Ride, the Water Ride and the Wineries Ride – and form a 'Great Ride' of more than 200 kilometres, known as the 'Cycling Capital of New Zealand'.
