Take a quick seated zip line adventure across Penrhyn Quarry, with two 100m flights that can be enjoyed side by side with a friend. It is an accessible way to experience the quarry views and a burst of outdoor excitement.
Check in before heading to the activity area, where the team provides a safety briefing and fits your harness and helmet. They explain the simple process before you take to the first line.
Clip in alongside a friend if you wish and fly across the first 100m zip zone. You then move to the second line for another seated flight over the quarry landscape.
Land back near the activity area, where an instructor removes your equipment. The experience is short enough to fit around other plans while still giving you a memorable aerial view.
Penrhyn Quarry above Bethesda is a vast slate landscape with a distinctive mountain backdrop. Its open setting makes the short flights feel far bigger than their distance.
The adventure terminal is the starting point for a range of outdoor activities in the quarry. It is an easy place to combine a quick flight with time exploring North Wales.
No previous zip lining experience is needed. Participants must meet the 1m minimum height and 100kg maximum weight limits so that the equipment can be used safely.
Wear closed toe footwear and comfortable outdoor clothes suitable for the conditions. Guests under 18 need a spectating adult in accordance with the supervision requirement.
Two parallel zip lines make this a sociable experience, allowing friends and family to fly together rather than separately. The straightforward format is ideal for first time zip liners.
The team handles the fitting and gives clear instructions at every stage. You can focus on the flight and the quarry scenery, knowing support is close at hand.
