Kawarau Bridge Bungy Jump

A trip to New Zealand is not complete without a bungy and what better way to experience it than to jump the original! Falling 43m from the Kawarau Bridge, and dunking into the river below will get your adrenaline pumping for sure. The site has a great viewing platform and cafe on site so if you aren't crazy enough to jump yourself, you can still have a great time watching those that are a bit wild!

Shotover Jet

Prepare for an adrenaline-fuelled ride like no other on the Shotover Jet experience in Arthurs Point, just outside of Queenstown. Hold on tight as the powerful jet boat navigates through narrow canyons, skimming mere inches above the turquoise waters of the Shotover River. Feel the rush as the boat executes thrilling spins and manoeuvres on your 25 minute ride, creating heart-pounding excitement against the backdrop of breathtaking scenery.

White Water Rafting

This adventure is a must for adrenaline junkies visiting the Queenstown region! Those with a zest for the more adrenaline pumping side of whitewater rafting will be ecstatic with a journey down the pristine waters of Queenstown's Shotover River. The river itself is fast and furious and also provides a wonderful showcase of the unspoilt and breathtaking scenery of the Queenstown region as you soar down the river and conquer its wild, untamed surface and rapids.

Ziplining

A unique way to get down the mountain, this stunningly beautiful guided journey through the native beech forest is comprised of six breathtaking, tree-to-tree ziplines that offer views of outstanding alpine vistas. This is a great family and group activity, easily accessible from the town centre.
