What to expect
Let the good times roll with Australasia’s only lift-accessed mountain carting adventure. Experience gravity-fuelled action, non-stop fun and return transport from Queenstown included! Once you've taken in the incredible sights down the Cardrona Valley from our Base area, head to Cart HQ to collect your full face helmet, overalls & cart. After a quick safety briefing you'll head to the lift and the action begins! We've got three mountain cart trails to choose from starting right from the top of the resort, check out that view! The longest trail is over 3km & spans all the way out to Captain's Basin, & back to Whitestar Express - ride the lift & get faster on every lap as you become more familiar with the course & our unique mountain carts! A 2 hour carting session provides access to McDougall's Chondola & Whitestar Express. All done and want to celebrate your laps? Swing by The Lounge for a coffee and food or treat yourself to our wide selection of craft beers & local wines.
