The UK's only permanent bridge bungee jump delivers a 40-metre freefall over the River Garry in the heart of Highland Perthshire. Experience a rapid plunge at over 50 mph before rebounding skywards, all under the guidance of experienced jump masters.
Your experience begins at the Killiecrankie Visitor Centre, where you’ll check in before walking to the iconic Garry Bridge. After meeting your jump master, you’ll be fitted with a full body and waist harness and given a detailed safety briefing. Once on the specially constructed platform beneath the bridge, the build-up intensifies as you step into place above the River Garry. The jump itself is a powerful few seconds—dropping 40 metres straight down towards water before the cord pulls you into an upward bounce, eventually settling you into a gentle swing as the winch system begins your recovery.
The full session takes around 1.5 hours including preparation, jump, and recovery. Spectators are welcome to watch from dedicated viewpoints or nearby gorge paths. The location adds to the atmosphere, with the steep-sided river gorge and tree-covered slopes providing a dramatic setting. Once back on solid ground, you’ll have the chance to view your jump footage and browse branded merchandise. The session is designed to keep everything moving smoothly while giving you time to absorb the moment, speak with instructors, and watch others take the leap.
This bungee jump takes place beneath the Garry Bridge in Killiecrankie, a scenic village in Highland Perthshire. Just a short drive from Pitlochry and easily accessed off the A9, the site sits high above the River Garry gorge—a popular spot for nature walks and home to centuries of local history. The surrounding woodlands and steep terrain offer both a visual spectacle and an ideal location for an activity that thrives on dramatic backdrops.
The operation base is at the Killiecrankie Visitor Centre, where you'll find parking and facilities. From there, it’s a short walk to the bridge. The area is popular with walkers and outdoor enthusiasts, with trails leading through ancient woodland and alongside the river. The setting blends accessibility with natural beauty, making it a great destination whether you’re jumping or spectating.
Participants must weigh between 35kg and 140kg and must be able to wear a waist harness (40–125cm). Those aged 65 and over will need medical clearance to take part, and anyone with health concerns should check with their doctor ahead of time. Unfortunately, pregnant individuals are not able to jump, but are welcome to join as spectators.
Comfortable clothing and secure footwear such as trainers are recommended. Loose accessories should be removed before the jump. The entire experience is built with safety in mind and led by qualified instructors who are there to support you from arrival to completion.

Yes, there are optional media packages available to capture your experience. You can choose a photo-only package, a video-only package, or a combined photo and video bundle. Each is priced per person and recorded by staff using mounted cameras positioned at key points along the session—whether that's the bungee platform, zip line run, or landing zones.
The photo package includes a selection of high-quality action shots taken at the most exciting moments. The video option features edited clips that capture your reactions and the activity from start to finish. If you’d like both, the combined package offers the best value and can be purchased upon completion of the activity.
Safety is the top priority for this bungee jump. The entire setup uses the latest certified bungee cords and harnesses that meet rigorous industry standards. Before you jump, every piece of equipment is carefully inspected and fitted by qualified jump masters to ensure it suits your size and weight. The platform is constructed to strict engineering specifications, and the team follows a thorough safety protocol with multiple checks at every stage.
During the jump, experienced jump masters oversee every moment to manage your harness and cord connections. They guide you through the process step-by-step, from preparation to recovery. The winch system is operated by trained staff to control your ascent back to the platform safely and smoothly, giving you peace of mind throughout the entire experience.
Comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement is essential. Trainers with good grip are recommended to navigate the walk to and from the jump platform safely. Avoid anything loose or that could get tangled in the equipment, such as scarves, jewellery, or hats, as these are not allowed during the jump for safety reasons.
The weather in Highland Perthshire can be changeable, so dressing in layers is sensible. Waterproof outerwear may be useful in case of rain. You will be fitted with all necessary safety gear onsite, so there’s no need to bring your own harnesses or related equipment.
To participate, you must weigh between 35kg and 140kg and be able to wear the harness securely. There is a minimum age of 14 years, and those aged 65 or older require medical clearance from their doctor to ensure it’s safe to jump. Pregnant individuals are not permitted to jump due to safety concerns.
If you have any existing medical conditions, particularly related to the heart, spine, or joints, or if you have concerns about your health, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional before booking. The team will also perform a basic health check and safety assessment on arrival.
The total session lasts approximately 1.5 hours from check-in to completion. This includes equipment fitting, a safety briefing, the actual jump, and recovery. The time allows for everyone to get familiar with the process, ask questions, and prepare mentally for the leap.
Depending on the number of participants and weather conditions, there may be short waits, but the team aims to keep the experience moving smoothly. Spectators can watch during these intervals, making it an enjoyable experience for friends or family who come along.
The jump operates year-round and in a variety of weather conditions typical for Scotland. However, for safety reasons, the team monitors weather closely and reserves the right to cancel or delay jumps in cases of high winds, lightning, or other hazardous conditions. This ensures both participant and staff safety at all times.
If your jump is affected by weather, the team will provide guidance and options such as rescheduling. It’s advised to dress appropriately and be prepared for outdoor conditions. The location’s sheltered position beneath the bridge offers some protection but cannot fully eliminate weather impacts.
Yes, spectators are very welcome and encouraged to come along. There are designated viewing areas near the jump site that offer good vantage points to watch the jump safely. The surrounding area also has walking paths and spots for enjoying the natural scenery while you wait.
Spectators should dress for the outdoors and bring appropriate footwear if they plan to explore the gorge trails. While the viewing areas are safe, everyone is asked to follow any staff instructions and respect the equipment zones for safety reasons.
Feeling nervous before your first bungee jump is completely normal, and the team is experienced in helping participants manage their nerves. Your jump master will take time to explain every step, answer questions, and provide reassurance. They are there to support you both physically and mentally.
Many find that the preparation and focus on technique help reduce anxiety. Watching others jump before you can also build confidence. Remember, safety is paramount, and you will never be pressured to jump if you feel uncomfortable.
The jump supports participants weighing between 35kg and 140kg. This range ensures that the bungee cord’s performance and safety are maintained. The waist harness fits sizes from 40cm to 125cm, accommodating a wide variety of body shapes and sizes.
If your waist measurement or weight falls outside these parameters, the team can advise on alternative options or refer you to other activities. The equipment is carefully selected to guarantee safety and comfort for all jumpers.
