"Fantastic Experience, great fun - the staff are tremendous! Very helpful, sign me up again!" - Joe Chemyez, Heli-Bike (more reviews here)
This is the original Queenstown Heli-biker trip, as featured in the UK "Top 50 things to do Before You Die". An amazing helicopter flight over the Remarkables mountain range, provided by Glacier Southern Lakes Helicopters, is followed by 18 kms of exclusive and varied terrain.
Vertigo is the only company with exclusive rights to land on the majestic summit of Ben Cruachan in the Remarkables range, just shy of 2000m! The highest heli-bike drop off location in the area! From here we have 18km of the best heli-biking terrain in the region! The top section starts of on 6km of open rocky ridgeline, followed by 6km of the most beautiful flowy alpine single track you will ever have ridden! Finishing on a fast, loose blast down a 4wd road, finishing in Gibston Valley, the valley of wines! You know this ride is good when all our staff fight over who gets to guide it, we never tire of showing people this amazing area, and getting to ride it with you!
To make things even better we give you a top of the range six inch travel Giant Reign 1 mountain bike! All of which are kept in top condition and given a scrupulous safety check after every ride to ensure customers enjoyment and safety.
Do you think you are up for it? If you have intermediate mountain bike skills and are happy to be riding over rough off-road terrain for a few hours then you will be able to come heli-biking with Vertigo! If you are unsure feel free to give us a call at the shop or email us with any queries, we would be more than happy to help.
We can also take care of the photography with a very special photo pack which allows you to create your own "e story".
"Absolute class. Great downhill trails & top guides".
