New Zealand is renowned for having some of the best scenery in the world. Nothing like cycling around a country to appreciate it more than zooming past in a car. If you are planning on a cycling holiday find places to stay that are bike friendly. Backpackers often bike around the country - it’s so easy and people are so friendly. There are lots of B&B’s in the city and the country to stay in.

An inner city B & B (bred and brekafast hotel), recommended by Lonely Planet is Aspen House Hotel. With a spacious basement garage your bike can be safely stored in their on-site secure carpark. The friendly team at Aspen Hotel can also get rid of backpackers large and unwieldy cardboard boxes if you travel with your own bike. However if you don’t bring your own bike there are many options for people wanting to bike around the country. You can hire one easily enough. The roads around New Zealand are generally well-maintained, uncrowded and can take you anywhere you want to go from the sub-tropical north to the scenic Lord of the Rings country down south.

There’s a huge range of accommodation options for backpackers through to luxury. You can cycle by yourself or get some advice from those who know the best routes.
