Experience Overview

*Drivers must have practical license and equivalent of full New Zealand drivers license/international license.

About this Experience

Beyond the valley floor, Robrosa Station unfolds into mountain tracks, open country and viewpoints that invite you to pause. Our Full Day Experience gives you time to explore this landscape with your guides. Begin with vehicle familiarisation and skills checks, then head into the high country in a Can-Am Maverick X3. The day balances the involvement of driving with opportunities to stop, look around and enjoy where you are. A catered lunch forms part of the journey, with the location selected to suit the day’s conditions. Your afternoon continues through the station, with higher routes and further viewpoints considered according to weather, access and your group’s capability. The itinerary remains flexible so your guides can make the most of the conditions.
