Pedal N Paddle Tour
Description
Come and enjoy 5 hours of adventure pedalling from Mt Wellington's summit and finishing off with a fantastic kayak in the sea.
Why not start your day at 9.30am with a wake up call on the Mt Wellington Descent. Nothing could be more sobering than a 21km downhill bike ride on the Mt Wellington Descent. Ride from the summit back to sea level then jump in a sea kayak and hit the water with a two hour paddle. This gentle sea kayak takes you around Battery Point around to the landmark Wrest Point Tower and back again. See Hobart from the water for a completely different perspective. Finish with fish and chips for lunch from one of the fish punts on the docks. The tour concludes around 2.30pm.
A light meal and a snack in included as well as transport to the summit, fully experienced guides and all equipment.
A minimum level of fitness is required for cycling and it helps if you've ridden a bike before. Once you get off the mountain, the roads are mostly flat, in some cases there are some gentle inclines. There are plenty of regrouping points along the way to cater for all speed levels. There is no fitness level required for the sea kayking.
All equipment is provided - bike, helmet, gloves, warm fleece jacket, rain jacket, double sea kayak, paddle, life jacket and a waterproof bag.
Meeting point and supplier's details are provided immediately after booking.
