ADRENALINE · BUNGEE JUMPING
One decision, taken once, at the end of a gantry. These 5 jumps are compared on height, what is underneath, whether you get dipped, and the weight floor and ceiling every operator enforces on the scales.
At Bloukrans Bridge near Plettenberg Bay, you reach the jump platform by zipline, suit up with an experienced Face Adrenalin team, and leap into the valley on a bungee cord using pendulum technology. A winch brings you back up, followed by a 216-meter SkyWalk. Photos and videos cost extra.
“Amazing experience. Fun atmosphere on the bridge before the jump and reassuring instructors”
Meet the Bloukrans Bungy team on South Africa’s Garden Route for a safety briefing, full-body harness fitting, zipline ride, and bungee jump above the Bloukrans River Gorge. You return by winch and 216-meter SkyWalk. John and Heavy were praised for helping nervous jumpers take the leap, though names and staff may vary.
“I enjoyed every moment and I would do it again. The guides were super friendly and experienced. The preparation for the jump is done properly so that one js comfortable and easy.”
You’ll jump 40 meters from a purpose-built platform beneath Garry Bridge, with the River Garry and Perthshire countryside below. Highland Fling Bungee runs the roughly two-hour session, talks you through safety steps, and winches you back to the platform after your jump. Meet at the National Trust visitor centre in Killiecrankie.
“Ooh the adrenaline rush !! Totally worth it! The team was awesome and walked every group member through the steps and safety measures patiently. The only thing i have to say is that i paid for both photos and video and even thougb I received the photos promptly, i am yet to receive the video. They seem to have forgotten that i paid for the service”
Meet the HighGround Adventures team at their Lakeside Pokhara office, ride about 20 minutes to Nepal’s first and only tower bungee, then step from a 70-meter platform for roughly five seconds of freefall. The $90 experience includes transfers, mountain and river views, a mobile ticket, and return to the meeting point.
“Fantastic experience. I did both zipline and bungee and both are worth to do. If you are in Pokhara just do it”
Choose a bungee jump, bridge swing, or bridge slide above the Zambezi at Victoria Falls. You check in at Bridge Cafe, receive a safety briefing, and use the supplied harness and equipment before your turn. Bring your passport for the bridge ticket. The activity lasts about one hour, with optional footage and return transport available.
“Staff were friendly and helpful. They try to keep you occupied just before you jump as most people get nervous. Was very scary but so much fun. And it was very safe”
Pick a rope, a river or an engine.
