Giant Canyon Rope Swing in Queenstown

If someone told you to go jump off a cliff… would you do it? Well with Shotover Canyon Swing, that answer is almost certainly going to be yes!You won’t regret it. For freefall without equal this’ll be a heart-pounding highlight of your time in Queenstown. When it comes to adrenalin-filled, balls-to-the-wall adventure activities in Queenstown they don’t do things by halves and don’t muck around. With 60 metres of freefall, the Canyon Swing is the world’s highest cliff jump. It’s a rush like no other. It’s a leap with no equal.

How long does the swing actually take?

You will freefall for approximately 4 seconds then swing for up to a couple of minutes before being winched up.

You get to decide how you leave the platform and enter, screaming, into the void. The Swing team adheres closely to The Message: “Don’t push me, ‘cause I’m close the edge.” They won’t rush or crowd you. Instead, the exceptional bunch of jump masters will safely manage your fear factor. Yes, these masters are slightly unhinged but they’re never less than 100% professional in their dedication to Canyon Swing safety and your personal journey.
