What you can expect

Take a ride on the Christchurch Gondola to see the beautiful Alpine scenery surrounding Christchurch city and suburbs. The gondola ride is 10-minutes each way at normal speed and each cable car stops to allow you to board and disembark safely.

Marvel at the Southern Alps to the west, and the Kaikoura Mountains to the north. To the south lies the beautiful harbour of Christchurch, and to the east is the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy 360-degree views of the plains, mountains, city, and harbour from the glass-enclosed gondola.

At the summit, you can browse the souvenir shop or visit the cafe. Experience authentic Kiwi flavours as you take in the spectacular views. If you are feeling more energetic, explore one of the many walking trails like the hike to the Crater Rim. Enjoy the Discovery Ride to learn about the development of the Canterbury region. The automated ride is a definite highlight with children and adults alike!
