AROUND BRUNNER CYCLE RIDE

Around Brunner Cycle Ride

Saturday 2nd May 2026

Once a year, hundreds of cyclists gather on the shores of Lake Brunner in Moana, New Zealand for the iconic Around Brunner bike ride. This celebrated event begins and ends outside Hotel Lake Brunner, where participants embark on a 130km circuit showcasing some of the country’s most stunning scenery.

The route winds through lush rainforests, along twisting roads, and over rolling hills, offering breathtaking views of mountains and lakes throughout. The Around Brunner event caters to all levels of cyclists with three different challenges to choose from.

The first option is the Around Brunner 130km individual ride, where cyclists tackle the circuit solo. The second is the Around Brunner 130km team of two, allowing pairs to conquer the course together. For those seeking the ultimate test, there’s the Around Brunner Enduro 260km, in which participants complete two laps of the circuit.

Now in its 18th year, this fantastic event has become a must-do for serious cyclists. The scenery is unparalleled, the atmosphere electric, and the sense of accomplishment upon finishing indescribable. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a casual rider, the Around Brunner promises an unforgettable experience.
