Ohakune Old Coach Road Mountain Biking
The Ohakune Old Coach Road is one of New Zealand's premium trails giving cyclists a glimpse into the past of what life was like using horse and coach and the hardships involved in building railways in the region. This trail is suitable for most weather conditions, thanks to its high quality construction and native forest canopy which offers good protection from wind and rain.

Starting at Smash Palace this is a very quiet ride off the Tongariro Plateau. Horopito is 500 feet higher than the ski village of Okahune, which makes for long and fast descents on this trail..
