π Hira, Nelson
Adventure park on 600 acres near Nelson with guided quad bike tours through native forest, the Skywire flying fox at up to 100kmph, paintball, mountain biking trails, and farm animal encounters. Onsite cafe.
I LOVE motorbikes. This scenic quad bike ride was one of the best family activities I have ever paid for. Every cent was well worth it. The views of Cable Bay and Delaware Bay were a bonus for us as NgΔti Tama whΔnau. The beautiful bush smell, the wonderful native trees, the pit stops with information given and the safety guided with an awesome crew member (sorry I forgot the name π¬, but a very awesome guy that's been there for many many years and traveled the area nearly a million times) made this trip to the south island truly amazing. Thank you so much!!! To every single crew member keeping this place going and cared for, I really appreciated seeing the love put into the whenua. We shall be back with more whΔnau next time ππ
π Family Action Verdict

βWe did the quad biking and it was a blast. I quickly learned Iβm not the best quad driver, but the team was so kind and accommodating, they even refunded one of the bikes without hesitation. Our guide, Fletcher, was fantastic, full of jokes and great energy. The cafΓ© on-site is a must-visit. The food was beautiful. We had quiche, a big sausage roll, pasta salad and drinks. The quiche was the highlight! Service was a little slow, but the staff were friendly and the food was worth the wait. The park itself is absolutely stunning, 600 acres of Nelson beauty. They also have the Skyline experience, which I didnβt get to try this time, but Iβll definitely be back for it. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Nelson!β
