Women Embrace Segway Tour & Lunch - Hunter Wetlands

Escape the everyday and discover the magic of nature at the Hunter Wetlands Centre Newcastle. Just 10 minutes drive from Newcastle's CBD, this incredibly diverse and protected 45 hectare natural eco-system will open your eyes to what is one of the most important Egret breeding grounds in Australia, not to mention the reptile and baby crocodile enclosures. And if you know your ducks, the Hunter Wetlands houses one of the oldest and rarest duck breeds in the world - the famous 'Freckled Duck'.

All this and more will be viewed while being guided through a mini rain and pine forest, over board walks, and around diverse bush tracks and trails on your very own Segway.

Fun, entertaining and unique with the added bonus of a 'light footprint'.... one tour will never be enough.It will take less than 30 seconds to get your 'Segway legs' while supervised by a qualified guide. Our Segway Adventures take you 'off road' and are suitable for both first time and experienced riders.

Experience the phenomenon that is Segway with the wind in your hair while riding amongst nature. You will have so much fun you won't want to get off!

After our amazing Segway ride, we will have a delicious picnic lunch.

Sounds like a fantastic day!
