For the ultimate in epic back country riding, there is nothing better than a lift on a helicopter to get you there!  As soon as you wander into the hills around Queenstown, it becomes obvious the insane amount of amazing terrain that exists in this region.  Vast sections of which are perfect for free riding... 

Like Heli-Skiing operations in the winter, Heli-Biking opens up this vast back country world, and it is all yours, only the scenery and your mates in sight.  The runs are long and diverse and if you play your cards right they leave you at charming country pubs to quench a well earned thirst.  Unlike heli-skiiers, bikers need not stop at the snow line!  Peak to valley is your new playground...

Half Day and Full Day trips are available and the prices are very reasonable compared to their winter counterparts! 

Check out the map below to get an idea of the scale of the heli biking terrain in Queenstown.  Your lead guide Greg McItyre has spent the better part of a lifetime getting to know these mountains and valleys like the back of his hand and with his company Fat-tyre Adventures you will be able to get first hand knowledge of New Zealand's epic back country free ride terrain.
