The Experience

Before You Go

Closed-toe shoes only

Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes with good grip — the course involves stairs and platform transitions where sandals are unsafe.

Hydrate before you fly

Bring water and drink well beforehand; high humidity and exertion on platforms sap energy fast.

Know the limits

Maximum weight is 100 kg and ages are generally accepted from 6–60; disclose recent injuries or medical issues when booking.

Secure your camera

Use a dedicated chest or wrist mount or keep phones tethered — loose items are not allowed on ziplines.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Climb nearby Khao Pom viewpoint for a quieter panorama of the island interior
  • Visit a small local coconut plantation near the course to see traditional processing and buy fresh coconut water

Wildlife

  • Long-tailed macaques
  • Tropical forest birds such as kingfishers and hornbill-like species

Conservation Note

Operators often emphasize low-impact routing and brief platform footprints; visitors should stick to guidelines, avoid litter, and respect wildlife to reduce erosion and habitat disturbance.

Koh Samui was historically a network of fishing villages and coconut farms; tourism accelerated in the late 20th century, bringing adventure operators inland.
