Queen Charlotte Track: Anakiwa to Mistletoe Bay

The final leg of the Queen Charlotte Track makes for a great stand-alone ride.

  • QCT BIKE (127 Of 227)
  • QCT (2 Of 11)

Start at Anakiwa and ride to Davies Bay (Umangata Bay) before returning, or push on further to Mistletoe Bay for either a return cycle trip or to catch a boat back to your car.

Alternatively, catch a water taxi transfer from Picton to Mistletoe Bay and bike to Anakiwa, catching a return boat to Picton.

A portion of the track beyond Davies Bay crosses private land, so you'll need to carry a Track Pass, available for purchase from the Picton, Blenheim and Havelock isite Visitor Information Centres.
