Where to Cycle in Taupo

Cycling and BMX Tracks throughout Taupo

Taupō has built a strong reputation as a cycling destination, with a mix of long-distance trail rides, lakeside paths and dedicated mountain bike terrain all within easy reach of town. The Great Lake Trail and the Waikato River Trails are the two headline multi-day or half-day rides, taking in lake views and native bush respectively. For mountain bikers, Craters Mountain Bike Park sits just north of town and runs purpose-built trails through geothermal terrain — from beginner-friendly cross-country to more technical descents. The Taupō BMX Track and Spa Park Pump Track cater to riders of all ages looking for something more local.
