Phoenix pairs two zip zones over about 1.5km of line, with four parallel cables in each zone and speeds of up to around 70mph on a visit of up to about 2 hours. 🔑 Key Details Duration: Up to 2 Hours Location: Tower Colliery, South Wales Minimum Height: 1.2m Maximum Weight: 130kg Distance: About 1540m Across Two Zip Zones 🎯 What to Expect Check in early, then walk to kit-up for harness, helmet, goggles and a safety briefing. A minibus takes you about 10 minutes up the mountain to Alpha, where four parallel 920m lines launch you over Llyn Fawr toward the Rhigos range at around 50mph. After you land, a short stair walk brings you to Bravo. Clip in again and drop toward the site below at speeds of up to about 70mph, with a strong ground-rush feel as you approach the brakes. De-kit near reception when you finish. Optional cameras can capture a flight if you want footage to download afterwards. 📍 Location Tower Colliery sits in a striking post-industrial landscape in the Hirwaun and Rhigos area of South Wales. Alpha opens up big water and mountain views; Bravo keeps you closer to the ground and the site below. Reception, kit-up and de-kit are organised on one site, so the mountain transfer is part of the adventure rather than a complicated logistics day. ✅ Prerequisites Riders must be at least 1.2m tall and no more than 130kg. Under-18s need one participating adult aged 18+ for every three children. No prior experience is needed. You should be comfortable with heights, a short stair climb between lines and seated high-speed flight. 💛 Why Choose Us Phoenix is built as two distinct flights rather than a single drop: a long scenic Alpha run and a faster Bravo finish claimed as the world’s fastest seated zip. Parallel lines mean friends can fly together, with clear briefings, fitted kit and a managed mountain transfer so the focus stays on the views and the speed. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Check-in and safety briefing Harness, helmet and goggles Minibus transfer to the mountain launch Alpha and Bravo zip zones (about 1540m total) ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point On-site parking charges (where applicable) Optional camera footage Food and drink Personal insurance ### Kit list Comfortable outdoor clothing Closed shoes suitable for harness fitting and stairs Layers for an exposed mountain top ## FAQs ### How long does Phoenix take? The full experience can take up to about 2 hours from check-in to de-kit. That covers kit-up, the mountain transfer, both zip zones and walking between lines. Arrive about 30 minutes before your start time so check-in and fitting stay on schedule. ### What are the height, weight and supervision rules? You need a minimum height of 1.2m and a maximum weight of 130kg. Under-18s need one participating adult aged 18+ for every three children. No prior zip experience is required. Harness, helmet and goggles are fitted on site before you board the transfer. ### What happens on the zip lines? After kit-up you take a roughly 10-minute minibus to the mountain top for Alpha, four parallel lines of about 920m each over Llyn Fawr at around 50mph. Then a short stair walk leads to Bravo. Bravo is the faster line, closer to the ground with a strong ground-rush feel at speeds of up to about 70mph, before you de-kit near reception. ### Where do we meet? Meet at Tower Colliery, CF44 9UF (Hirwaun / Rhigos area). Arrive about 30 minutes early to check in at reception. On-site parking charges may apply. After you finish you are close to the de-kit area and site facilities. ### What is included? Your booking covers check-in, harness, helmet and goggles, safety briefings, the mountain transfer and both Alpha and Bravo zip zones (over 1.5km of line in total). Optional headcam footage, food, parking and personal insurance are not included. ### What should I wear? Wear comfortable outdoor clothing and closed shoes suitable for harness fitting and a short stair walk between lines. Layers help on the exposed mountain top. Avoid loose scarves or dangling jewellery that could catch. Secure phones and valuables before you clip in. ### What is the setting like? Tower Colliery sits in a post-industrial South Wales landscape with the Rhigos mountain range and Llyn Fawr as the backdrop on Alpha. Bravo brings you closer to the site below, so you get both big valley views and a sharper ground-rush finish. ### How many lines are there? Each zip zone has four parallel lines, so you can soar alongside up to three other riders. Alpha is the longer scenic flight; Bravo is the faster seated sprint. Together they make up about 1540m of zip line across the two zones. ### Is it weather dependent? Mountain weather and wind can affect operations on exposed lines. Safety comes first, and sessions may pause or adjust if conditions demand it. If plans need to change, the team will be in touch with guidance for your booking. ### Is there walking between the lines? Yes. After Alpha you walk up a few flights of stairs to reach the Bravo start. It is a short transfer but worth knowing if anyone in your group prefers to take stairs slowly. Staff are on hand at both platforms for clipping and unclipping. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Phoenix-Lo-Res_-1311-1-1.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
