Fiordland biking trail in limbo as last stretch on DOC land - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

The last stretch of a Fiordland biking trail is in absolute limbo.

The lake-to-lake trail between Te Anau and Lake Manapouri is disjointed - because the last two kilometres fall on Fiordland National park-land.

The Park's Management Plan prohibits biking on any of its walking tracks and a review planned in 2017, still hasn't happened.

Fiordland Trail trust Chair John Greaney says without the review, they're bogged down.

Greaney says pre-Covid, 40,000 a year would use the trail each year. 

He says the park allows people to hunt and drive but not ride bikes.
