Cable Waterski at Blue Rock

A five-tower cable pulls you round a private lake below Sir Lowry Pass, with no boat involved.

Blue Rock runs an overhead cable rather than boats, which means it can carry up to ten riders at once and nobody waits for a turn behind a wake. The cable runs at thirty two kilometres an hour and you can wakeboard, waterski, kneeboard or go barefoot on it, with an obstacle park for people who know what they are doing and instructors for people who do not. Everyone who rides has to be able to swim. Hours are seasonal and there is night skiing on Fridays.
