“A day of exhilaration and excruciating laughter”
So what’s involved in the experience? Here we’ll talk you through each step of the process for ultimate peace-of-mind, and you’ll see just how accessible this adventure really is!
The first step of any Zip World adventure; arrive half an hour before your adventure start-time to check-in at reception and settle in.
Once checked-in, you’ll be pointed in the direction of the kit-up area, where you’ll be given that all-important safety brief and be fitted into your harness and helmet.
Depending on which ticket option you’ve chosen you will now take to the edge of the 46ft tower, and plummet (safely of course) to the woodland ground below, either on the slow or quick drop! Drop 1, 2 or 3 times.
You’ll conveniently land right next to the kit-up area, so an instructor will remove your harness for you. Why not spend the rest of your time at Zip World Windermere checking out the Treetop Nets, or explore the stunning Brockhole on Windermere?
You will need to arrive on site ready to check in for your experience 30 minutes prior to your adventure start time.
You will need to wear warm comfortable clothing suitable to the weather on the day, with walking boots or trainers. Some of our experiences require your arms and legs to be covered, please check individual adventure restrictions to see if this applies to you.
Yes, you can purchase ticket protection insurance at check-out which will allow you the flexibility to make a last-minute change or cancellation.
