Extraordinary terrain.
Your hands on the wheel.

Cardrona Valley · Queenstown & Wānaka

Get behind the wheel of a Can-Am Maverick X3 and discover the wild side of Cardrona. From your first off-road challenge to a private adventure through the Central Otago high country, this is a landscape you get to experience for yourself. 

Your next adventure starts in Cardrona.

There’s something about taking the wheel, finding your confidence and discovering what lies beyond the next rise.

Based at Robrosa Station, between Queenstown and Wānaka, Can-Am Experience puts you in the driver’s seat of a purpose-built off-road buggy. With our guides leading the way, you’ll learn how your vehicle handles the terrain before exploring an environment shaped by farming, gold-mining history and the seasons. 

Choose a shorter introduction on our valley-floor tracks, or bring your group for a private half-day or full-day journey into the high country. Whichever experience you choose, expect hands-on adventure, remarkable scenery and plenty to talk about afterwards.

Find your kind of adventure.

Cardrona, from a different perspective.

Between Queenstown and Wānaka, Cardrona Valley is the starting point for an adventure that takes you beyond the roadside view. 

Our base at Robrosa Station sits within approximately 3,658 hectares of working high-country farmland. On our longer experiences, farm tracks lead into the Pisa Range, where the landscape opens out and the valley falls away below. 

Routes change with the weather, seasons and farming activity, making each journey responsive to the place you’re exploring. 

Give your group a day worth talking about.

A new challenge. A shared sense of achievement. A view that gets everyone to stop for a moment.

Bring your team, friends or private group together for a Can-Am experience tailored around your plans. From a shorter shared activity to a fully catered high-country charter, we’ll help you create a day that feels right for your group.
