Environment
Taupo Bungy & Taupo Cliffhanger’s reputation and success are reliant on the stunning scenery and natural beauty surrounding the site. Set above the clear and fresh waters of the Waikato River, it lies in the midst of a public track between Taupo township and Huka Falls. Our aim, therefore, is to protect and preserve this pristine environment we reside in and continue to give our visitors a clean, green experience, whether they choose to bungy jump or swing within it, or merely take in the views.
Safety
Taupo Bungy & Taupo Cliffhanger has an excellent safety record. Our emphasis is on maximum safety whilst ensuring maximum enjoyment!
Before you take the plunge, you will be briefed, weighed, checked, and double-checked. To jump or swing, you must be in good health and feel reasonably comfortable about taking up the challenge. A medical board at the base outlines various health conditions, which all jumpers and swingers must read and then inform us of any that apply. Everyone going onto the platform must read, acknowledge, and sign a waiver form, as part of the registration process.
