The Otago Central Rail Trail is the most popular cycle trail in New Zealand with over 10 000 people cycling the full length each year and more than that number using the trail for shorts trips. The Trust website is the best place find links for renting bikes and accommodation. The new pocket guide Otago Central Rail Trail easy guide by Brian & Diane Miller provides a wealth of background information on the trail along with very detailed cross-sections which show the location of the many side trips available along the trail.
