Old Coach Road Bike Trail

Easily accessible and suitable for riders of most ages and abilities, the trail traverses Tongariro National Park forest and farmland, with many epic lookouts over the volcanic plateau. Revealed along the way are many surprising and memorable sights - including railway tunnels and grand viaducts, to old bush camps and remnants of the original cobblestone road. The Ohakune Old Coach Road is great for the whole family and runs between Horopito and Ohakune. Horopito is 170 metres higher altitude than Ohakune, so make the most of the overall descent.
