Pohangina Valley Loop

This ride is a great way to get a mixture of hills, open flats and gravel rides while showcasing the unique scenery of the Pohangina Valley.

This ride is a great way to get a mixture of hills, open flats and gravel rides while showcasing the unique scenery of the Pohangina Valley. This ride offers plenty of great stopping points along the way, with awesome views from many of the higher points along the way. If you have time, pop in to Cartwheel Creamery for some artisan cheese tasting. The Pohangina Road is mostly gravel, but worth the effort for the scenery.
