We had such a great day on the 65km Remutaka/Hutt River Trails. The pick up was seamless, Isaac was informative about Wellington and the trail, the bikes were great. The packed lunch was substantial, the instructions were thorough and the weather behaved itself. The views are breathtaking all along the route. The entire ride was a mix of single track, gravel fire trails, rail trail, paved bike paths, footpaths, and a bit of road. We took our MTB bike shoes and Wildfinder were able to supply us with the appropriate pedals on each of our bikes. We will do this ride again next time we visit Wellington. Just brilliant. The ebike is a good decision if you dont like hills as there are plenty of them!

Hired a couple of e-bikes to ride the Remutake trail to the peak and down to Cross creek. Booked for 4 hours which was enough to do there and back. I had the power turned off for the gental slope up to the peak, on the return up from Cross Creek to the peak I had the bike on eco mode. I would say if you are fit, then a standard mountain bike would be fine. My wife who suffers arthritis and has a replacement knee, found the e-bike gave her the freedom to complete the ride.

Good: Great day out. You don't need to be a cyclist or fit to do this trial on the e-bikes. Slopes are gentle and most of the track easy. Not good: Track needs to be kept clear from gorse and bramble, especially the Cross Creek side. These pest plants destroy the native vegetation and are no fun and full of thorns, so watch your legs and hands when you get to Cross Creek.
