This is a flying fox with a difference, it’s got the world’s first ever launch rail that gives you a crazy dropping sensation just as you make your way over the edge of the cliff 182m above the Shotover River.

After a short walk up to the starting point, you'll get a real understanding of what you are about to get yourself into. You'll be kitted out with a harness and helmet, go through a safety briefing and then it's all go.
One by one, you'll be attached to the unique rail launch system, where you can choose your Drop Style; forwards or backwards cutaway or take a flying leap and run off! At the end of the rail, you'll freefall onto the 'zipline' then it's all fun from there. Reaching speeds of up to 65kph you zip across the canyon with style.
Now it's all about getting back, this time it's more traditional, but you can race side by side with your buddy, hold on knees up and try and go as fast as you can. Or just lean back and take in the views 138m high above the Shotover River.
Allow 2.5 hours return trip, video options available for purchase.
