TOUR DETAILS for the Cape Winery Tour

The shuttle van leaves our base in Ahuriri at 10am each morning to take you & your bikes to the starting point at Clifton, Cape Kidnappers, please be at the Tākaro Trails base at 9.50am so you don't miss it. 

We will then transfer you to the start of your adventure at Clifton near Cape Kidnappers. Head into Hygge Café who have an amazing array of food and a great spot to have a coffee or even breakfast.   

Cycling along the picturesque coastal trail from Clifton in 4km you’ll be ready for your first taste of some fine wine at the friendly Clearview Estate and upmarket Elephant Hill. 

You will then enjoy a 16km cycle through the coastal communities of Haumoana and Te Awanga linking to the limestone cycle trail following the Tuki Tuki River.  Stop at Askerne along the way - a friendly, family winery which offers the best value wine tasting and gourmet picnics! The views are stunning as you cycle the raised stop-bank trail and look out over orchards, vineyards and farmlands.
