Super rando en haut des montagnes!

Rando au milieu des montagnes, avec vue sur la vallée de wanaka très sympa. Nous l'avons fait au levé du soleil à 7h, ça valait le coup de se lever tôt ! Passage au milieu des fermes et des taureaux :D Attention le nombre de places proposées sur bookme n'est pas toujours à jour. Pour nous la balade a duré moins de 2h, au lieu de 2h30 annoncées. Mais super promo sur bookme, on ne peut pas tout avoir ! Nous recommandons vivement the cardrona quad experience!!!!!!

Lots of fun!

Great tour if you’re after a bit of adventure. Bikes are fast, trails are fun and the guides are supportive of varying levels of ability. Great way to see the Cardrona Valley and learn about its gold mining history.
