The Downhill / Uphill to Hanmersprings is rough gravel and quite steep. If cycling Jack's Pass is preferable to Jollie's Pass, as the road to Jollie's pass is a 4x4 Track which is not maintained.

This sculpture by sculptor Neil Dawson was created in 2000/2001. It survived the earthquake practically undamaged while many surrounding buildings, including the cathedreal, suffered heavy destruction. About Neil Dawson see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Dawson

Yikes, the cafe showed up unexpectedly! Very smartly done and as usual good selection of savory and sweet things and excellent coffee selection. Perfect for a stopover on a bike tour with lots of altitude

An indoor food market of a special kind. It's worth enjoying here with all your senses!

the climb is worth it

Jollies Pass Road. The road is ok for mountain biking but is unsuitable for bicycle touring. The road has not been maintained for years and is badly rutted in many places. There are a couple of stream crossings and large, deep water holes that may require a rider to dismount and wade through. The road is also very steep. For bicycle tourists, stay on the Molesworth Road rather than take the Jollies Pass Road to and from Hanmer Springs.

Some easy compacted gravel ... i actually did it on a road bike. Nice track and decent beach view

Picnic table here is the best spot on this section of the trail for lunch/snack

The water might look inviting but it has been toxic due to algal blooms. Stick to the views.

Easy going and relatively flat off-road trail that follows the old railway line between Motukara and Little River. Lots of stunning scenery, birds and other wildlife along the way.

Large rocky outcrop that's visible from elsewhere on the Little River Rail Trail and SH75. There's a car park with other facilities as well, so a good place to start/finish a ride on the trail.

It's not a lake, it's the east end of the Te Ara Ōtākaro Avon River Trail, so you can ride along the Ōtākaro Avon River through the red zone all the way into the CBD. Best combined with a cold one at Pomroys at the western end of the trail, after crossing Fitzgerald Ave.
