Currently we do not have quads for hire but guests can bring their own quads to follow the quad trial along and across the riverbed or go on an escorted outride where we have access to unlimited kilometers of dirt roads on thousands of hectares of trust lands via the neighbouring farms.

Guided outrides (between 70km - 160km) can be arranged according to the requirement of our guests. Our outrides are our speciality and you will enjoy the thrill of bushtrails, river crossings and other obstacles.
