Skippers Canyon 4WD Adventure
Explore Skippers Canyon on a half day four-wheel-drive adventure with Nomad Safaris in Queenstown. This action-packed 4WD tour in Queenstown is perfect for adventure enthusiasts, history buffs and nature lovers alike.
After a pick up in central Queenstown, the 4WD tour begins with travelling along one of the most adventurous roads in the world - the Skippers Canyon Road. Known for its breathtaking landscapes and fascinating rich gold mining history, the Skippers Canyon Road includes spectacular views from above the Shotover River and leads to the historic Skippers township.
Your experienced Nomad Safaris guides will take you on an unforgettable adventure, navigating challenging off-road tracks in specially designed 4WD vehicles. Make sure to keep your camera ready for plenty of incredible photo opportunities along the way.
Throughout this Skippers Canyon 4WD tour, your guide will share stories of the gold rush era and the pioneers who once called this place home. Marvel at the remnants of old mining settlements and see the historic Skippers Suspension Bridge, an engineering marvel that spans across the canyon. You will even have the chance to try some gold panning in the Shotover River, known as the richest river in the world!
