Tandem bungee jumping lets two people take the leap together from a platform 40 metres above the River Garry at Killiecrankie in Highland Perthshire. This one-hour session offers a shared adrenaline experience, ideal for friends, family, or partners looking to enjoy an unforgettable moment side by side under expert supervision.
The experience begins with a detailed safety briefing from the jump masters, who will explain how the tandem jump works and make sure both participants are comfortable with the process. You will each be fitted with harnesses and securely connected together, before making your way to the jump platform positioned under the Garry Bridge.
When all safety checks are complete, you’ll step off the platform together, entering a free fall before the bungee cord slows your descent and rebounds, creating a swinging motion. After the jump, a winch system gently brings you back up to the platform. The whole session lasts about an hour, including preparation and recovery, giving plenty of time to enjoy the experience safely.
This jump takes place beneath the Garry Bridge near Killiecrankie, an area renowned for its scenic river gorge and surrounding woodland in Highland Perthshire. The nearby Killiecrankie Visitor Centre serves as the base for the experience, providing parking and a meeting point for participants.
A short walk from the visitor centre leads to the jump platform suspended over the deep gorge carved by the River Garry. The natural surroundings offer an impressive backdrop for the jump. Spectators are welcome to come and watch from designated safe areas nearby, adding to the atmosphere.
Each participant must weigh at least 35kg, with a combined weight not exceeding 180kg and no more than 30kg difference between jumpers. The minimum age is 14 years, and anyone over 65 must have medical clearance from a doctor to take part.
Pregnant individuals are not permitted to jump for safety reasons. Participants should wear comfortable outdoor clothing and suitable footwear. Those with medical conditions or concerns should consult their doctor before booking to ensure the jump is safe for them.
The team running this tandem bungee jump are experienced professionals committed to safety and participant support. Laurie, the Operations Manager, brings extensive expertise in managing adventure activities, while Debbie provides encouragement and expert guidance during every jump.
Their combined knowledge and friendly approach create a reassuring environment, ensuring that participants feel confident and supported throughout. This dedication to safety and quality makes this tandem jump one of the most trusted and exciting experiences available in Scotland.
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.
A tandem bungee jump involves two people jumping together while securely connected, sharing both the drop and rebound as a pair. You’ll stand side by side on the platform, harnessed together at key points to ensure equal distribution of weight and movement. Once released, both jumpers fall simultaneously, experiencing the same adrenaline-filled descent and rebound.
This differs from a solo jump in that your motion is influenced by the combined mass of both people. It can feel slightly faster or more forceful than a solo jump, depending on the pair’s combined weight. Tandem jumps also add the social element of sharing the experience in real time—ideal for couples, close friends, or anyone looking to support each other through the leap.
To take part, each jumper must be at least 14 years old. Anyone aged over 65 is still welcome to participate but must provide medical clearance from their doctor before the jump. This ensures they are physically able to handle the demands of the free fall and rebound.
Both participants must meet the minimum weight requirement of 35kg, and the combined weight of both jumpers must not exceed 180kg. There must also be no more than a 30kg difference between the two. These rules help maintain a safe, controlled descent for both individuals.
Yes, as long as both participants meet the age and weight requirements, you can jump with anyone you like—friends, siblings, partners, colleagues. It doesn’t matter if one person has jumped before and the other hasn’t, as long as you’re both up for the experience and physically fit to take part.
The only restrictions are that the weight difference between the two of you cannot be more than 30kg, the maximum combined weight cannot exceed 180kg and the maximum weight of one individual cannot exceed 100kg (including 2kg harness). This is important for balancing the tandem system and ensuring a smooth and controlled jump. Animals, even though often joked about, are not permitted under any circumstances.
Absolutely. All tandem jumps are carried out using purpose-built equipment specifically designed for two jumpers. The harnesses and rigging are thoroughly checked before each jump, and only experienced, qualified jump masters oversee the setup and operation.
Your safety is the top priority, and the platform, winch system, and bungee cords are all regularly inspected to meet strict safety standards. The team is trained to ensure you’re securely connected and fully briefed before you leave the platform, so you can trust in the process.
Your session starts at the Killiecrankie Visitor Centre, where you'll meet the team and go through a detailed safety briefing. Both of you will be weighed, harnessed, and walked through the tandem jumping process to ensure you're completely comfortable with what’s involved.
After a short walk to the jump platform beneath the Garry Bridge, you’ll be connected to each other and the bungee cord. When everything is in place and you’re both ready, the countdown begins—then it's off the platform together for a shared free fall, rebound, and final winch back to safety.
