TIMBER TRAIL
SHUTTLES
Epic Cycle Adventures has been providing shuttles on the Timber Trail for over 10 years.
We ride the Trail often & love being able to get others out riding. Our priority is that you & your bikes make it to the start of the Trail safely so you can focus on having a great ride!
SHUTTLE OPTIONS
Ongarue to Piropiro - 8.30am
Good option for a 1 day trip or for beginner riders
-
Meet us in Ongarue in the morning and we shuttle you and your bike to Piropiro
-
You then cycle down the southern half of the Timber Trail over the day back to your car at our base in Ongarue
-
See highlights of the Trail such as Maramataha Suspension Bridge and the Ongarue Spiral
Ongarue to Pureora
Option 1 - 8.30am
The best way of doing it. Ride the full 82km Timber Trail
-
Meet us in Ongarue in the morning and we shuttle you and your bike to Pureora
-
If you have luggage this is transferred from Ongarue to your accommodation at Piropiro and then returned the next day
-
Whether you are taking a leisurely 2 day ride or smashing it out in 1 day, you finish back at our base where you parked your car
-
This means there is no deadline to make it back to Ongarue to catch a shuttle after, there is no waiting for other groups to finish, and there is no long shuttle back to your vehicle after your ride.
Option 2 - By negotiation
PLEASE NOTE THAT FOR THIS SHUTTLE OPTION WE NEED A MINIMUM OF 6 PASSENGERS
If you are driving from the Tauranga/Rotorua direction this may be a better option.
-
You drive directly to Pureora and start your ride- this means that you can start when you prefer
-
Ride the Trail either over a leisurely 2 days or smash it out in 1 day
-
At the end of your ride we meet you in Ongarue and shuttle you and your bikes back to Pureora
-
Note that we don't regularly do luggage transfers from Pureora to Piropiro. If you require luggage transfers from Pureora this is also only by negotiation.
ALL SHUTTLES ARE A MINIMUM OF 2 PEOPLE UNLESS THERE ARE OTHER BOOKINGS ON THAT DAY. SINGLE BOOKINGS ON DAYS WHEN THERE ARE NO OTHER BOOKINGS ARE BY NEGOTIATION AND WILL INCUR A SURCHARGE
