Description

Experience Queenstown’s alpine backcountry like never before on a Private Heli Snowbike Tour with Snowmoto. This unique adventure combines a scenic helicopter flight from Queenstown with an exclusive guided snowbiking session in remote mountain terrain, designed for 2–5 riders.

After your private heli transfer, gear up and ride across untouched snow on a snowbike selected to suit your size and experience. With expert instruction and a range of bikes for kids, teens and adults, this 1–1.5 hour session is tailored to suit both confident riders and adventurous beginners (some prior motorcycle experience is recommended).
