Description

Pick up your eBike from the East by West Ferries office at Queens Wharf, Wellington CBD, between 10:00 AM and 10:30 AM. Get set up on your eBike, and receive a briefing on the route. For those wanting a longer ride, choose an optional out-and-back (up to 20km) ride along the historic waterfront area, around the harbour to the famous Te Papa Museum, continuing on to the golden sands of Oriental Bay, then out to Evans Bay and the Miramar Peninsula, before resuming your trip from Queens Wharf. From Queens Wharf, follow the cycleway out of the city (you'll be on dedicated cycle paths next to the road) until you reach the start of the newly completed shared pathway, Te Ara Tupua, which follows the harbour from Ngauranga all the way to Petone. Continue along the Petone foreshore (check out the Petone Settlers Museum right on the waterfront, and stop for a bite to eat at Seashore Cabaret). Follow the trail over the Hutt River, then onto the second shared pathway, Tupua Horo Nuku, as you make your way along the Eastern Bays to Days Bay. Enjoy an ice cream and coffee (or something stronger!) from the cafes and bars at Days Bay. For those wanting extra adventure, choose an optional out-and-back (up to 25km) ride along flat trails to Pencarrow Head with its lighthouses and lakes. Return your bikes to Days Bay by 4:30 PM, then catch an afternoon or evening ferry back into Wellington (flexible timing, tickets included in price).
