Mountain Carting - Cardrona
Cardrona Mountain Carting - with Queenstown transfers
Description
Check out the newest activity at Cardrona - Mountain Carting! This gravity fuelled adventure will send you racing your friends on 3 wheeled carts down Cardrona's purpose built carting tracks. No previous experience is needed and a member of the carting team will provide you with a full safety briefing and guidance on how to use the carts.
Mountain Carts are 3 wheeled purpose built carts for alpine environments. They are built for the drivers comfort, safety and performance with a low centre of gravity and wide wheel base to provide you with stability. The carts feature hydraulic brakes and are built to handle super easily on the tracks.
There are three carting tracks to choose from with the longest one measuring over 3km and taking you all the way out to Captains Basin and back to Whitestar Express. Then jump on the chairlift at the end and do it all over again!
This is one unique experience we highly recommend and a great activity for families, groups of friends and stag parties!
