Mountains to Sea Cycle Trail - Nga Ara Tuhono

The network of cycle trails that allow cyclists to ride the adventure trails from Mt Ruapehu to Whanganui navigating along the general direction of the Whanganui River. Stretching from Turoa, down along the Ohakune Old Coach Road and then offering choices via Whakahoro or Ruatiti before heading across the Mangapurua, jetboating along the Whanganui River to Pipiriki before joining the Whangnanui River road and then heading towards the brand new urban route through the town and eventually completing at North Mole - and the Tasman Sea.

One of New Zealand's Great Rides, it was created as part of the 2009 initiative to create economic benefit by getting cyclists out amongst New Zealands' amazing backcountry trails. Category:Cycle Trail
