Get ready for the ultimate mountain biking experience with Skyline’s Gondola Uplift Service

The Mountain Bike Uplift season runs from late September to mid-May. Please check opening hours and days here, as they may change from day to day.

Skyline Queenstown offers the first Gondola-assisted mountain bike uplift service in the Southern Hemisphere. Our Gondola cabins are specifically designed to accommodate mountain bikes, with dedicated MTB cabins that can transport 5 bikes and 5 riders each, ensuring a safe and smooth ride to the top.

Located at 53 Brecon Street, Skyline’s Gondola Uplift Service is the most convenient Gondola Uplift service in Queenstown. Once at the top, you’ll have access to the Ben Lomond Trails and other exciting tracks.
