Queenstown zipper goes tandem

29 January 2010, 9:52 am Tours & Travel

Ziptrek Ecotours, Queenstown's newest adventure activity, this week launched a 'tandem zipping' experience. The all-weather, all abilities, year-round flying fox ecoadventure in the forest atop the Skyline Gondola, is now able to offer tandem tours for children seven years and older with no minimum weight limit. Tandem zippers are fitted with a Ziptrek custom-designed climbing harness and attached to their guide who looks after them and ensures they have the best possible experience. Ziptrek Ecotours offers a guided two-hour flying fox journey through the forest. Guests step off a series of aerial launch platforms to zip down four separate cables from tree to tree. Each ride is controlled by a guide and a patented braking system. Between the four different flying fox lines, Ziptrek guides deliver an interpretive commentary with an ecological focus.
