Cycle trails across New Zealand will receive a Government boost for infrastructure upgrades and replacements.
Tourism and Hospitality Minister Louise Upston announced the funding during her first visit to Queenstown in the new portfolio.
The 23 Great Rides had about a million visitors each year, and about 20% were international visitors, she said.
“With those numbers expected to continue growing, maintaining and improving these trails is a must, so visitors can keep enjoying the unique experience of pedalling through New Zealand’s beautiful landscapes.”
