The Experience

Before You Go

Wear secure water shoes

Choose footwear with a strap or heel support to prevent loss in rapids and when clambering on wet rocks.

Bring a dry bag

Protect phone, wallet, and a change of clothes in a small waterproof bag—many operators have limited locker space.

Sun protection for the zipline

The zipline launch sits exposed on a hilltop—apply sunscreen and bring a hat for the shuttle ride before launch.

Tell guides about medical issues

If you have back or spinal problems, disclose them at booking; the provider recommends avoiding this activity if you have such conditions.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

Conservation Note

Operators encourage responsible use: keep rubbish out of the river, avoid disturbing pools used by wildlife, and follow guide instructions to minimize erosion and bank damage.
