About the Rotorua Skyline Gondola
There is no better place to check out Rotorua from above than on board one of these eight-seater Skyline Gondola cabins, which transport you along a gentle 900m Doppelmayr cableway system, all the way up to the Skyline Rotorua complex. Here, you can relax and marvel at the views, grab a bite to eat at the Food Market Kitchen, take a walk on the nature trails, or choose from one of the exciting Rotorua activity options, including the Rotorua Skyline Luge!
About the Rotorua Skyline Luge
The Rotorua Skyline Luge is a fun, fast-paced family activity that is enjoyable for everyone of all ages. Explore over 7km of thrilling luge tracks - the longest of all Skyline Luge tracks in the world! Best described as part go-cart, part toboggan, the Rotorua Skyline Luge is a truly unique experience that is a must-do activity when in New Zealand. Rotorua Luge has five tracks suitable for all skill levels; gentle, intermediate and advanced. All tracks provide fun and excitement for all while winding through the region's beautiful forest and scenic volcanic wonderland.
Just select your preferred luge trail, take off downhill and enjoy the ride! You'll twist and turn through the dramatic scenery, all the while having complete control over the speed and direction of your luge. These three-wheeled gravity-fuelled luges are purpose-built with a unique braking and steering system so that all you have to do is push forward on the bars to accelerate and pull back to stop.
Once you reach the bottom, you'll be eager to get straight back up to the top so jump on the scenic chairlift and do it all over again - up to five times!
