Segway & E-Bike Tours Hunter Valley

Seeing Pokolbin from a Segway is a different way into wine country. Instead of the view from a car between cellar doors, riders cover vineyard rows and bush tracks off the road, guided the whole way. Hunter Adventure Centre on Hermitage Road runs these tours, and each one includes training before you set out, so a first-time rider can join a group without practice.

The tour is often only part of the booking. The centre also runs an eight-lane axe throwing range, archery and laser clay shooting, and it puts together party packages for hens, bucks and work teams. That makes a Segway ride an easy opener for a longer session, and the 4 Pines Brewery on the same site gives the group somewhere to finish.

How to plan a Segway outing in the Hunter:

• Tell the centre how many riders are coming, so it can schedule the training and the tour together
• Wear closed shoes and clothes suited to dirt tracks, since the route is off-road
• Pair the ride with archery or axe throwing for a half-day package
• Ask about hens, bucks or team packages if the ride is part of a celebration

Horse riding is also on offer at the same Hermitage Road address, so a group can follow the Segways with a trail ride. For more ideas see the full list of Hunter Valley activities, or plan a group outing on the team building page.
