2 Overview
Port Stephens 1 Hour Quad Bike Adventure Tour
No experience necessary. On tour you will:
- Learn the basics of quad bike riding, including safe ATV handling and riding techniques.
- Be taken for an unforgettable journey through bushland
- Immerse yourself in coastal wilderness.
- Experience Stockton Beach.
There will be 1 Guide per 5 people so most groups have two guides, one out the front leading you around and one as a tail end to make sure no one gets left behind. You leave the staging area and ride over maintained tracks through coastal grassland and scrub to get to the dunes. The guide will then take you over more and more challenging sand dunes, up and down. The large sand dunes can be from 40-100 feet high.
All quad bike tours are conducted in a tag-a-long (single file) format, with each rider instructed to leave a safe distance (5-10m) between themselves and the bike in front. Clients are instructed to stay in the riding line (tracks) of the person in front of them and not to veer off on their own track or ride erratically (no overtaking and no side by side riding).
Clear and simple hand signals are demonstrated and provided by the lead guide. Clients are provided with a riding helmet and hi-Vis safety vest.
