Yes. You are clipped to a rated steel cable with a harness that is checked before every launch, all overseen by trained staff.

Can I do it if I am scared of heights?

Many people do, and the ride is so quick that nerves usually turn to a grin. Staff talk you through that first step off.

Are there weight or age limits?

Yes, minimum and maximum weights and a minimum age apply for safety. The operator confirms the figures.

Comfortable clothes, closed-toe shoes, and tie back long hair. Harnesses and helmets are provided.

How fit do I need to be?

Barely at all. Gravity does the work, and you just need to manage the steps up to the platform.

Ziplining | adventuro

Ziplining is the quick, accessible thrill of clipping onto a steel cable and flying across a gap, whether that is a forest canopy, a quarry, a gorge or a valley. There is a heart-in-mouth moment as you step off, then gravity takes over and you are zooming across with the ground a long way below and a grin plastered on your face.

It needs no skill and no experience, just the nerve to launch. Instructors clip you on, check everything twice and send you off, so all you have to do is lift your feet and enjoy the ride. Some sites have huge, fast lines, others gentler ones for families.

The operators on adventuro run ziplining with all the harnesses and safety gear sorted. The hardest part is the first step off the platform, and even that is over in a second.
