Flying Hanuman Zipline & ATV Adventure in Phuket: 42 Platforms Through Rainforest Canopy
Race through Phuket’s treetops on 42 wooden platforms, then tackle an instructor-led ATV loop — a compact half-day of zipline thrills and dirt-track fun. Read practical tips on timing, gear, and what to expect on the course.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
ATV sections are dusty and the zipline course uses ladders — sturdy sneakers or light hiking shoes are best.
Bring a change of clothes
You’ll likely sweat; a dry shirt and small towel in the transfer vehicle make the ride back more comfortable.
Listen to the safety briefing
Guides will fit your harness and explain belay points — following instructions is the easiest way to stay safe.
Choose a morning slot
Mornings are cooler and visibility is clearer for photo opportunities on the platforms.

Conservation Note
Flying Hanuman emphasizes limited impact construction — platforms are designed to fit trees and avoid major pruning. Visitors should follow leave-no-trace rules and avoid feeding wildlife.
The area sits on low granite ridges; locals historically used these slopes for rubber and fruit cultivation, and adventure operators now adapt old access routes for recreation.
