Mountain Biking Waikato River Trails: 2 Arapuni

***   Add a review
#122 of 387 mountain bike trails in New Zealand
#7,718 in the world

Looking at it from north to south, the first few kilometers from Arapuni to Jones Landing are techincal but less confident riders can take a road detour.
From Jones Landing to Waotu Road you have to go by road but the remaining 20km is remote and follows forestry roads through pine trees or narrow trails through native bush. There is a spectacular 80 metre long swing bridge to cross and lots of steps to walk down. The views of Lake Arapuni are stunning and there are opportunities to swim in it as you get close to Waipapa Dam.
