Soaring through towering trees, crossing suspended swing bridges, and taking in breathtaking views from high above the forest floor creates an unforgettable blend of excitement, nature, and discovery.

Upon arrival, you will be welcomed by the experienced guides and provided with a full safety briefing before being fitted with your equipment. The adventure begins with a gentle progression of ziplines, making it suitable for a wide range of confidence levels. Along the journey, guests fly across six thrilling ziplines, including a spectacular 220-metre ride through the forest canopy, traverse dramatic forest gullies, and explore treetop platforms positioned high among ancient trees, including a magnificent 1,000-year-old rimu. Throughout the experience, guides share fascinating insights into the forest’s unique wildlife, ecology, and conservation efforts, adding meaning to every moment.

What makes this experience truly special is the opportunity to experience both adventure and conservation in one remarkable setting. Beneath the lush canopy of Ōkoheriki Forest, native birds fill the air with song while centuries-old trees create a landscape unlike anywhere else.
