Soar the Treetops: Hanuman World Zipline & Skywalk in Phuket
Fly above Phuket’s rainforest on a high-adrenaline zipline circuit at Hanuman World, then walk the Skywalk for panoramic views of the Andaman Sea. This practical guide explains what to expect, how to prepare, and the local context for a confident treetop adventure.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear secure, closed-toe shoes
Platforms and landing zones can be slippery; lace-up trail or athletic shoes provide grip and ankle support.
Hydrate before you go
Tropical heat builds quickly—drink water before arrival and carry a small refillable bottle if allowed.
Check the weight and health limits
The operator enforces a maximum weight (around 120kg) and excludes certain medical conditions—disclose health issues when booking.
Choose morning slots for clearer views
Early tours avoid midday heat and often have better visibility out toward the sea and neighboring islands.

Conservation Note
Hanuman World promotes low-impact routing and uses established platforms to reduce forest disturbance; visitors should avoid feeding wildlife and follow guide instructions to minimize erosion and litter.
