Cycling 3,000 kilometers from Cape Reinga to Bluff, New Zealand!!!

The Tour Aotearoa is one of the world's most epic bikepacking trips. Stretching some 3,000 km from Cape Reinga on the northern tip of the northern island of New Zealand to Bluff on the southern tip of the southern island of New Zealand. The Tour Aotearoa or “TA” follows a combination of cycle trails, gravel roads, and sealed roads across the incredible scenery and great vistas that are uniquely New Zealand.
