Church Road Winery
If you’re joining us for the Vineyard Vista Trail in Hawke’s Bay, make sure to finish your walk or run with a well-earned stop at Gwen Bar at Church Road Winery.
The Gwen Bar will be open on event day for drinks and a post-race hangout, including their famous cheese boards and fries – perfect for sharing with friends.
It’s the ideal spot to relax, celebrate your effort, and soak up the vineyard views. Why not make a day of it and stay on for a meal or wine tasting too?
