Ziptrek Ecotours is NZs #1 original zipline tour and is a spectacular and exhilarating eco-adventure through the forest canopy high above Queenstown, situated on Skyline Gondola hill. Harness up and feel the wind in your face as you Zip down breath-taking ziplines which traverse down the mountain tree to tree. With two courses to choose from it is suitable for everyone and operates all year round in all weather conditions.
Moa 4-Line Tour: The perfect starter to your adventure experience in Queenstown. The Moa comprises four ziplines, starting and finishing at the top of the Skyline gondola. Moa is designed to start low and slow and gradually build your confidence as it gets progressively longer, higher and faster. All ages love the interaction this aerial tour has to offer.
Kea 6-Line Tour : Faster, longer and finishing with a zipline that descends 30 storeys at speeds of up to 70kph, the Kea tour is a unique way to get down the mountain. This stunningly beautiful guided journey through ancient native beech forest comprises six breath-taking, tree to tree ziplines with outstanding alpine vistas; returning you to the bottom of the gondola hill on a total high.
The ziplines are gravity fed, so guests do not have to worry about controlling their own speed. Two tour guides will accompany guests on their tour, one guide to connect (launch platform) and one guide to disconnect (landing platform) each and every guest.
The educational component provides a unique insight into the surrounding environment on both a local and global scale. Meanwhile, the ziplines provide an adrenaline rush like no other!
