A varied and fun day out, with zip-lines and quad-bikes to enjoy!
Footprints770531, October 2026
Our package included the canopy tour, quad-biking and a meal at the Marilyn's 60's Diner.
We enjoyed progressively longer and steeper zip-lines with a couple of young guides. We learned a little about the forest at each rest point. Note that you have to walk back up the hill - which whilst not long, is steep.
This quad-bike tour was an out-and-back drive through a commercial forest to a viewpoint overlooking the river mouth. The venue for the quad bikes was about 40 minutes drive from the canopy tour along a rutted gravel track, which left us a little worried for the hire car! No transfers are included in the package.
The Diner was a quirky setting, filled with memorabilia including vintage motorbikes and cars. We enjoyed our burgers and milkshakes here - something a little different!
Overall, we really enjoyed our day!
