ATV Riding in Wilderness Garden Route: Technical Bush Trails

Navigate trees and natural obstacles on your own quad bike.

ATV riding in the Wilderness Garden Route is a 30-minute guided quad biking activity where you operate the bike through technical bush trails with natural obstacles. The ride includes instruction and a safety briefing before you start, and a live English-speaking guide leads the way. No previous riding experience is required. Children from age 4 are welcome.

The experience

What happens if you've never ridden a quad bike before? The guide handles that. You start with an instruction and safety briefing that covers how to operate the bike, the rules for the ride, and tips to get the most out of it. Then you're on the trails: 30 minutes of navigating twisting paths through trees and bushes, with natural obstacles built into the terrain. The guide rides with you, so you're not alone figuring it out.

The trails are designed for riders of all levels, which means they challenge you without requiring you to have done this before. You maneuver the quad through the bush, testing your handling as the terrain changes. A helmet is provided, and the guide stays with you throughout to make sure you're safe and having the ride you came for.
