Description
See South Iceland from a thrilling new angle as you glide above a rugged canyon framed by waterfalls, green slopes and volcanic rock.
The zipline brings together playful adrenaline and beautiful natural views in an easy-to-add adventure that feels exciting from the first launch. Clear organisation and expert guidance make it easy to relax into the experience and enjoy every memorable moment.
The longest line stretches roughly 240 metres, but the experience is not only about speed. Short walks between platforms reveal the canyon from ground level before each new aerial viewpoint. Guides fit the harness and helmet, explain the braking system and manage every launch and landing.
