Heli-bike options - Fly up, Ride down!

Starting early October through to May

From: Telegraph.co.uk - Helibiking in Queenstown


Exhilarating helicopter ride, epic views, and then there’s the biking – fast, flowing, fantastic. Several heli-bike options to choose from and nothing but fun to be had!

 

Remarkable Nevis Heli Bike (Map>>)

As seen on the Getaway Travel Show Channel 9 Australia
and Prime New Zealand.


An amazing 12 minute flight over the remote Nevis Valley to beyond the Remarkables Range, we land at 1700m on the eerie rocky moonscape-like terrain of the Old Woman Range. Undulating, fast flowing trails to some more technical single track take us to the bottom. Beware, there is some uphill riding. Finish at Bannockburn for lunch at the pub or a local winery.
Allow 5-6 hrs. $449

Cardrona Ride (Map>>)

Stunning eight-minute flight over the mighty Kawarau River valley up to the Pisa Conservation Area, we land at 1600m on a barren knoll with 360 degree views. We ride steep, fast, rocky, ungroomed single track down to Touhys Saddle then onto open flowing farm track to the valley floor.  Finish up with an optional stop at the historic Cardrona Pub for a well-deserved cold one before driving back to Queenstown. 
Allow 4 hrs.  $349pp

Roaring Meg (Map>>)

Stunning eight-minute flight over the mighty Kawarau River valley up to the Pisa Conservation Area, we land at 1600m on a barren knoll with 360 degree views. This precarious pack track perched above the wild Roaring Meg River is one of the most exhilarating and technical heli bike options in New Zealand. You will encounter steep, rocky, ungroomed track before dropping to the valley floor for some great flowing single track. A real adventure ride that will test your skill and fitness – some bike-hiking included. 
Allow 4-5 hrs. $360pp

Double Descent - Big Day Out

Not for the faint hearted – two big 1700m descents equal a massive 3500m descent in one day!  After an awesome 12-minute flight over the famous, roaring blue waters of the Kawarau River and over the Remarkables Range we land at 1700m on the Old Woman Range. Brace yourself for a 30 km fast and action packed ride down to Bannockburn.  After lunch we take the mighty Land Rover up a grunty 4WD farm track to Leaning Rock – an area of extraordinary monolithic rock formations. Prepare to be blown away! This is a challenging, rough single-track ride to the valley floor with fast open trails, sheep track and amazing scenery.
Allow a whole day. $499pp
