Fly Through the Canopy with Ziptrek Ecotours
If you are looking for the ultimate sky-high adventure, Ziptrek Ecotours offers a spectacular way to experience the beauty of Queenstown. As New Zealand’s original zipline tour, this eco-adventure takes you through a lush forest canopy high above the city. Your journey begins at the Ziptrek Treehouse, which sits conveniently at the top of the Skyline Gondola. From this height, you can enjoy stunning views of Lake Wakatipu before you even clip into your harness.
Choose Your Adventure Level
Because every traveler has a different appetite for adrenaline, Ziptrek Ecotours provides two distinct tour options.
First, the Moa 4-Line Tour serves as a perfect introduction to the world of ziplining. It features four lines that increase in speed and length, making it ideal for families and first-timers. Alternatively, if you crave maximum excitement, you should choose the Kea 6-Line Tour. This advanced option includes six incredible lines, including the steepest tree-to-tree zipline in the world. Consequently, you will experience a gripping rush as you fly through the ancient trees.
An All-Weather Experience
Interestingly, the fun does not stop when the clouds roll in. Ziptrek Ecotours operates all year round, and the forest is truly alluring in every type of weather. Whether it is a bright summer day or a misty winter afternoon, the canopy provides a fascinating backdrop for your flight. Because the guides focus on sustainability and education, you will also learn about local conservation efforts during your time in the trees.
Essential Tour Conditions
To ensure a safe and enjoyable flight, please keep these requirements in mind:
- Weight Limits: The Kea tour requires a minimum weight of 30kg (65lbs). However, the maximum limit for all guests is 125kg (275lbs).
- Age and Tandem Options: Children over six years old who are under the weight limit can fly tandem with a guide on the Moa tour.
- Footwear: You must wear closed-toe shoes to participate in any zipline activity.
- Access: Please remember that the Gondola ticket is a separate cost from your tour booking.
Why Choose Ziptrek?
In addition to the adrenaline, Ziptrek Ecotours stands out because of its commitment to the environment. While you zoom between platforms, you occupy a space that respects the natural habitat. Therefore, you can feel good about your adventure knowing it supports eco-friendly tourism.
