Bungy Jumping.: Anyone for Bungy Jumping ?
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Bungy', the word that quickens the pulse and stirs the imagination, refers to the challenge and excitement of throwing yourself off a bridge or platform high above the ground with your legs attached by a single rubber band.

    This is the world's first bungy site. Began over 14 years ago.

    Height : 43 metres / 142 feet

    This is the only bridge that does tandem and water jumps.

    Bungy Jumping.: Ledge Bungy
  • Tip Rating:
  • Queenstown's only urban bungy, a jump that is 400m above Queenstown. No doubt this jump is the most scenic.

    You can also jump at night !

    Height: 47 metres / 154 feet

    Bungy Jumping.: Nevis Bungy
  • Tip Rating:
  • This operation utilises a cable car system that moves along the wire from the valley walls. The fall takes 8 seconds ! After, you will pull a uniquely designed release system to unclip your feet and leave you in a sitting upright to take in the views while being winched back up.

    Height: 134 metres / 440 feet

    Directions: Compulsory courtesy coach - private road access to the jump site.

    Things To Do: Hang Gliding ?
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Much depending on good weather and the wind ! A few steps and you can fly like a bird swooping and diving at speeds of up to 80kph or just gently float and take in the stunning views. No experience necessary.
