Highwire- adrenaline adventureExperience the wildest adventure in Victoria Falls as you soar like a bird over the Batoka Gorge with views up to the Victoria Falls bridge.Real team building event and fun for the whole family on the Zimbabwe side. The ultimate fix for the genuine adrenalin junkie. High Wire Adrenaline product range consists of 4 different activities
1) The "Zambezi Gorge Swing"Victoria Falls set up the world's only cable gorge swing. 135 metres of cable spans the top of the 75 metre high gorge and has a sliding pulley system hanging from it. Once firmly attached, you take a running jump from a wooden platform and then coast smoothly across the spectacular gorge below. Your full-body harness is attached to another gorge-spanning cable by a rope system and you plunge for a 50 metre heart-in-mouth drop before progressing into a smooth Tarzan-like swing. The jump ends with several pendulum swings before clients are lowered to the ground. At the bottom there is a track back to the top of the gorge. 2) Foofie Slide- Zip LineOne of the world's most spectacular zip line slides, running 425 metres across the Zambezi river. 3) Abseil or Rap jumpThe abseil is moving down a sheer rock face backwards 120 meters over the Zambezi or clients can "rap jump" facing towards. 4) The Flying FoxThe flying fox is a cable slide 120 metres above the green water of the Zambezi and clients "fly" across, attached to a special body harness. You are then pulled back to the gorge so there is no walkout The Lookout
The set-up includes 'The Lookout', a wooden thatched structure, literally
teetering over the gorge, which offers the most spectacular and breathtaking
view of the Batoka Gorge, the Zambezi and its number 4 rapid. From this
platform you can watch and gasp as the human circus hurtles, spins and
falls in every direction
A safety instructor briefs guests on the area and proper use of the equipment before starting All these products are situated alongside the magnificent Victoria FallsFamily groups have been flocking to the Lookout, first to watch, then finding the courage to do the activities It of course appeals to the Overland Truck market, but it is amazing to see how many ordinary tourists and families come to watch and end up doing something"! WARNING: THE ADRENALIN DAY CAN LEAD TO A SENSE OF EUPHORIA AND THE DELUSION THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GO BACK TO WORK - EVER AGAIN! IT CAN ALSO LEAD TO ADRENALIN ADDICTION! All activities can be done as many times as you like throughout the day.
