Ziptrek Ecotours Queenstown Guided Zipline Adventure

Ziptrek Ecotours is NZs number one original zipline tour, a spectacular and fun eco-adventure through the forest canopy high above Queenstown, situated on Skyline Gondola hill.

Ziptrek Ecotours engages the young and young at heart as you harness up and feel the wind in your face. With three courses to choose from there is a Ziptrek that is suitable for everyone as you zip down breath taking ziplines which traverse down the mountain from tree to tree. This is a unique and fun experience in Queenstown delivering an eco-adventure that combines a personal guided zipline journey offering sustainable education in a receptive and engaging environment creating lasting memories.

Whilst on tour you will be accompanied by two knowledgeable guides who take care of everything technical so you can sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. Our informative interpretation boards allow the guides to support a story of place that brings meaning to the world around them. We show what happens in nature (Natural Step Framework), what Ziptrek does to be more environmentally aware and how we can all do our bit within our conditions.

It is truly special to be high up amongst the treetops, taking in Queenstown and the surrounding lake and mountains from a very unique angle whilst learning a little and having lots of fun along the way.
