Shotover Canyon Swing

Welcome to the World's highest swing at 109 metres above the ground. Based in the superb adventure playground of Queenstown, this is one adrenaline rush you will not forget in a hurry. It is a giant rope swing across one of the famous Shotover River Canyons.

Once you 'depart' the platform you will freefall 60m/200ft down into the canyon until the ropes smoothly pendulum you into a giant 200m arc at 150kph. You will then complete a couple of massive swings before you come to rest. We then winch you back up to the platform with a huge smile on your face and a memory you will not forget in a hurry.

The swing is very smooth because the ropes pull you into a giant arc and air friction (drag) slows you down. You are also in a fully padded body harness, which ensures you remain in an upright position. One of the most common comments from swingers is that they can't believe how smooth and comfortable it is.
