Located in the Gibbston Valley, just 25 minutes from Queenstown, the Kawarau Bridge is renowned for being the site of the worlds first commercial bungee jump. On the Kawarau Zipride, however, you'll experience it a different way by soaring across one of three parallel ziplines that take you along the sparkling Kawarau river at speeds up to 37 mph.
Book a single zipline ride, or upgrade your experience with three or five rides; ride solo, or share with family and friends who can ride tandem with you or on the zipline next to you. You also have your choice of how you'd like to ride: fly like Superman in a lying-down position; flip upside down and ride like Batman; travel forward in a comfortable seated position; or enjoy the thrill of zipping backward.
It's a round-trip ride on the zip down, enjoy scenic views of Kawarau Gorge, and then watch people bungee jumping on the ride back up.

We had a lot of fun doing this. The people at the Kawarau Zipline we're helpful, patient and gave us plenty of ideas for how to enjoy this experience. It's great high speed fun. And who knows, while your there, you may be inspired to go head first off the Kawarau Bungy Bridge, too!
