Ride "Mountain bike heaven" on Trails even the local riders don’t know exist! These guided mountain bike tours are aimed at getting away from the main trails and exploring some of those out of the way places. This is real mountain biking and not just a joy ride! Heli Bike - A great way to combine the thrill and excitement of a helicopter flight with a down hill ride. You will helicopter for 12 minutes (with your bikes onboard) into the "Old Woman" range, 1700m above sea level. Then it is 3-5 hours of mostly downhill riding in wilderness conservation area and high country sheep stations. Heli biking gives you a variety of trail types - single track, fast/rough 4x4 trail, sheep track and sometimes there is no trail at all! Naturally, all options come with extensive views. At the end of a great day riding, you will find yourself in one of NZ's new wine growing regions and a taste of local wine is definitely on the cards! Minimum of 2 people are needed to run the day, optimum number is 5 people. Costs vary depending on the number of people you book. The price quoted above is based on a group of 5 people. Experience - you must be reasonably fit and adventurous.
