Soar Over Tad Fane: Pakse Zipline and Sky-Hammock Experience
Fly above the Bolaven Plateau and stare down at Tad Fane’s twin waterfalls on a short, guided zipline tour. Choose a seated ride or a sky hammock to linger mid-air for coffee and views.
The Experience
Before You Go
Check weight limits before booking
Operators require a weight check for safety—provide accurate weight when booking and at check-in.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy trainers or hiking shoes give secure footing on launch and landing platforms amid wet surfaces.
Bring a quick-dry layer
A light, water-resistant jacket handles mist from the falls and sudden rain on the plateau.
Secure loose items
Use a strap or leave valuables with staff—phones and cameras must be tethered to avoid drops into the gorge.
