Zip Wire Safari @ £30/person

Seeking an epic zip wire adventure? Join us on our exhilarating zip wire experience suitable for adventurers aged 10 and over! Before taking flight over our historic quarry on 3 exhilarating zip wires, we'll first teach you the skills to safely use a zip wire in our mini zip training area. When you and your instructor are happy they'll first guide you round our epic zip wire route, before you zip round! Even the journey from one zip wire to the next will be exciting - you'll be making your way along the edge of our granite cliffs! Don't worry, you'll be harnessed to our safety system all the way round, so you can safely enjoy the stunning views as you go round!

There's no better way to enjoy a good dose of adrenaline and make amazing memories with friends and family, all whilst building confidence with every ride!

"I have just done the new zip wire safari at Via Ferrata, and it was an incredible adventure! The whole experience was truly exhilarating. The ziplines were great fun and is in a loop that I could do as many times as possible within my time slot, you’re fixed to a safety line throughout the course so you are entirely safe as you clamber along the quarry to each of the zipwires. The staff were friendly and professional, and made sure we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire experience." - Adam, Trip Advisor
