Quad Bike Adventures

Take a guided tour of Kings Creek Station on your own 4-wheel quad bike. Experience an exciting quad bike adventure through the rugged outback taking in spectacular scenery whilst riding through wild bush.

Learn a little about outback station life from the stockmen guides as you pause to view the splendor of the George Gill Range.

Your adventure takes you through the cattle country where you will often see santa/shorthorn cattle and occasionally feral camels, kangaroos and dingoes. Majestic wedge-tailed eagles are often sighted, gliding in the sky looking for prey, while below colourful parrots and other native bird life flit around the scrub.
