About the Experience
Take on Redwoods Altitude, a fully guided high-bridge and zipline treetop adventure set among Rotorua’s towering redwoods.
After being fitted with your safety equipment and completing a full briefing, set out on a two-hour journey up to 25 metres above the forest floor. Cross 25 suspended bridges, soar across 3 ziplines and, if you choose, finish with an optional final leap. Feel the rush of a controlled 4-metre freefall before being gently lowered to the ground.
Your friendly, expert guides will support you throughout the adventure, helping you take on each challenge at your own pace. Along the way, learn about the history of the redwood forest and hear stories shared by your guides.
With no more than 10 participants per tour, Redwoods Altitude offers a personal and supportive adventure for families, friends and anyone ready to step outside their comfort zone.
Your adventure doesn’t end there. Entry to Redwoods Glowworms is also included, offering a completely different experience within the forest. Step inside a dark, aboveground eco-cave where thousands of living glowworms illuminate the rock walls and ceiling. During the 10–15 minute guided Redwoods Glowworms experience, you’ll learn about their lifecycle, see the glowing larvae closer than ever before, and even have the opportunity to capture flash-free photos.
