와카티푸 호수 최고의 라이딩 경로

The climb to Crown Range Pass near Queenstown is a highlight for any cyclist! 😊 Coming from the north, the ascent begins just before the town of Cardrona. The road winds gently through the landscape, past green meadows and small lakes. The higher you climb, the steeper the road becomes. The last 5 kilometers are a real test of endurance – the gradient is around 10-12%! 🚴‍♂️ But the view is worth it: The Remarkables mountain range rises majestically into the sky, and you can see all the way to Lake Whaika. The pass itself is at an altitude of 1,076 meters and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. From here, you can look down to Queenstown and Lake Whaika. There are also several rest areas and viewpoints where you can catch your breath and enjoy the scenery. The descent is pure fun! The road is winding and leads through breathtaking scenery. You can really let loose and enjoy the speed! 😄 Overall, the Crown Range is one of the most beautiful and challenging cycling routes in New Zealand. If you're fit and want to enjoy the views, it's a must! 👍

This is the summit on the Crown Range Road. It’s the highest main road in New Zealand and reaches an altitude of 1121 metres. In the winter it can become covered in snow.

A pass! Unfortunately there is a lot of traffic between the two tourist towns of Wanaka and Queenstown, but still very beautiful

Free to enter and worth a wander around.

Not far from here is an archer sculpture on top of a hill!

Bike shop next door if you have any mechanical issues

Nice little spot for taking pictures of the bending road climbing towards the Crown Range Summit.

1076 meters above sea level, highest main road in New Zealand, awesome views on a road with a little bit too much traffic.
