A Rail Trail Movie

I had great expectations for the Otago Central Rail Trail and to be honest, the first 70 kilometres let me down. Reaching Ranfurly I was a little underwhelmed with it all, but the following morning, BINGO! I stumbled across 60 kilometres of cycling nirvana, a winding trail, stunning views over craggy outcrops, two long and dark tunnels and many viaducts that felt to be hundreds of metres above the valley floor. 

If you only have one day on the trail, make sure you ride the Ranfurly and Omacau stretch, what an amazing experience!
