Experience the Ultimate Adrenaline Rush with Shotover Canyon Swing, Queenstown’s Wildest Adventure!
When was the last time someone told you to jump off a cliff… and meant it? At Shotover Canyon Swing, you’ll take on the world’s highest cliff jump, plummeting 60 metres into the stunning Shotover River canyon before swinging out in a massive arc. It’s one of Queenstown’s most unmissable adrenaline activities and has been sending thrill-seekers into the void since 2002.
Your Adventure Starts Here
Just a 10-minute drive from Queenstown’s town centre, you’ll meet the slightly unhinged — but always professional — jump masters at the Canyon Swing platform. These legends live by the motto, “Don’t push me, ‘cause I’m close to the edge,” so you can expect plenty of encouragement but zero pressure. They’re here to safely manage your fear factor and help you experience pure, unfiltered adrenaline.
Choose Your Style of Insanity
This isn’t just any swing. With Shotover Canyon Swing’s unique rigging system, you’re in complete control of how you launch into the canyon. Whether you want to run, dive, backflip, or be released hanging upside down, there’s a jump style for every kind of crazy. Feeling brave? There’s even the legendary Chair Jump and Cutaway.
Solo or Tandem — Your Call
Fly solo for a personal battle with gravity, or rope in a friend for a tandem jump and double the screams. It’s the perfect addition to a thrill-packed Queenstown itinerary.
