We have teamed up with Helicopters Nelson New Zealand for a number of heli-biking experiences this summer, our next day out is Coppermine on the 7th December! 🚵

This Great Ride is an epic 40km trail full of fun and funky features. Most of the track is Grade 3, with an awesome Grade 4 descent from the Coppermine saddle, towards the Maitai Valley

With a scenic flight to the mineral belt towards the summit of the historic Dun Mountain, you’ll be treated to views of lush bush and the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary 😍🐦

(Back-up day is the following day Sunday if weather is bad on the Saturday)

Note - all riders will need to get themselves and their bikes to the car park/farm below the mountain, they get flown up and self-guide themselves down.
