Clyde to Middlemarch
TRANSPORT BETWEEN QUEENSTOWN/QUEENSTOWN AIRPORT AND CLYDE (RAIL TRAIL)
All your transport requirements must be booked well in advance of setting off your cycle journey.
We recommend you organise to have your luggage transported from one overnight stop to the next by Bike Hire/ Tour Operators.
Deciding on transport options to get from Queenstown/Queenstown Airport to Clyde is a good start to self-planning your Otago Central Rail Trail experience.
We hope the following helps with your decision-making.
- Daily Intercity bus service from Queenstown/Queenstown Airport to the Rail Trail head at Clyde. Check Intercity Timetable ( www.intercity.co.nz ).
- Should you hire a vehicle in preference to busing, Queenstown spoils you for rental vehicle choices.
- A third option is organising with your a bike hire company / tour operator to shuttle you from Queenstown Airport or Queenstown itself to Clyde.
