Alert Level 2 - Riding The Hauraki Rail Trail

The Hauraki Rail Trail will be open for riders to enjoy under Alert Level 2. Self-registration will no longer be required.  In line with Government protocols we recommend you ride in groups of no more than 10. 

Under Alert Level 2 we can leave our bubbles and reconnect with friends and family. Whilst we have more freedom of movement, it’s up to each one of us to keep the rest of New Zealand safe.

A Safe Return To Riding

Keep your distance in public from people you do not know (ideally 2 metres).

Please use common sense.  Don’t ride the Trail if you have symptoms (e.g. fever, coughing, shortness of breath). Stay home. Don’t socialise.

Keep a track of where you’ve been and who you’ve seen.

You can travel to ride the Trail, but make sure you do it in a safe way. You should minimise the number of places you stop on the way to your destination.

Avoid touching gates, handrails, fences, benches and picnic tables. The virus can remain on surfaces for three days

When approaching others slow down so it’s easier to maintain separation, and always give way to walkers.  Be calm, be kind, be responsible and show the community you care.

Wash your hands and disinfect your bike when you get home
