learn about and explore Margaret River's Boranup Forest trails on our electric quad bikes - the first of their kind!
Our EcoBikes have been specifically designed to float over the delicate trails of the National Park and forest trails. Their wide , load spreading, low inflation tyres combined with a specifically designed power delivery system which inhibits wheel spin and maximises traction, the EcoBikes are world leaders in ethical powered transport in sensitive environments.
Nowhere else on planet earth can you experience them...because we designed and built them just for Eco Adventures Margaret River!
A Margaret River innovation :)
