At iRIDE, we believe Wellington is one of the best cities to ride a bike. Nestled between stunning coastal routes and winding hill climbs, it offers a truly unique riding experience — whether you're a seasoned road cyclist, a weekend mountain biker, or just cruising the waterfront.
The city's compact size makes it easy to access world-class trails and scenic routes right from your doorstep. From the rugged climbs of Makara Peak to the smooth curves of the Hutt River Trail and the stunning bayside views around Miramar Peninsula, Wellington has something for every kind of rider.
But what really sets Wellington apart is its strong, passionate cycling community and the incredible local events that bring us all together throughout the year, making riding here even more special.
