We’ve zip lined in Costa Rica, Roatan, Paradise near Queenstown, Alaska, and a 4,000 foot zip line on Kauai. Next to the zip line on Kauai, this one tops them all.
The two guides emphasized safety procedures before starting and gearing up at the base office. Once geared up, we walked to the chair lift which would take four of us at a time to the top of the mountain where we walked down a trail to the first line. On the way up on the chair lift we saw zip liners riding far above us on the first of four lines. It was a little scary.
Once everyone reached the first launching platform, the guides reviewed safety procedures again and rigged the first two riders. Each person carries a trolly which will carry them on the zip lines. The first two lines are the shortest, but very high. Riding the first two lines prepares riders for the longer third line and the longest fourth line. What a blast. If you like zip lining, don’t miss this one.

We did the night ziplining at the start of the night zipping (winter) great night views over the city while zipping down the lines.
Make sure you wear plenty of warm clothes, there is a bit of waiting around while everyone in the group has their turn but group sizes are limited so you aren't waiting for ever.
You get fitted into a modern sitting harness so no uncomfortable straps around your legs.
Lots of fun & looking forward to going again during the day time.

I did the 2.5 hour Zipline Tour and absolutely loved it! You start the tour off with an epic chairlift up the mountain (just when you think you've reached the top, there's more!) Once you reach the top you can see beautiful views of the city, lake, beaches, snow capped mountains (even in the summer). At the moment, this chairlift is the longest in NZ.
The first zipline is a good taster, it's the second shortest zipline out of the four, but a good one to start off with. The others either went super fast, super high or super long! So much fun! And by the end you just want more!
The team were awesome, guides were hilarious and even just the buildings at the bottom in "the village" (cafe, check in office, bike maintenance shop) were beautiful.
A nice and calm place surrounded by tall majestic trees.
You don't have to do a 2.5 hour tour to visit the area, they have bike and walking tracks and cafe on site with a delicious menu. They also have a shorter tour if you just want to do the longest zipline in NZ. They also just have chairlift passes which is still amazing on it's own.
The only thing I will say though, is that you do need to have your own vehicle to get there as buses do not go there. The best way to travel is most likely via Uber. I travelled from the City to the Adventure Park and paid approximately $21.00. The entrance way is gravel road, most of the way up and I would recommend if you do go on Uber, say you're travelling to Christchurch Adventure Park, don't just put in address otherwise you will be dropped off a good 10-15 minutes walk from the park?

Wow totally recommend the Zipline Tour !!
Much better than I expected this tour is excellent value at $130 pp. Very well organised tour, a fun time with friendly guides who really know what they are doing. We felt completely confident that we were safe on each of the 4 runs. Freezing at the top but so much fun, it was really good.
Only negative ! the queue inside waiting to sign the Waiver Ts&Cs is messy and slow .. apparently you can do it online before arriving which would be better

Christchurch Zipline tour was absolutely breathtaking
Our guides, Chris and George were friendly, professional and made sure we were safe and comfortable throughout the tour.
Chris and George were able to answer all our questions and put our nerves at ease (at one point Chris starting singing!)
Everything was explained to us so we knew exactly what was expected and what was happening the whole time.
Could not recommend enough!
Will be back.

If you after a fun experience then look no further than the Christchurch Adventure Park! Really awesome atmosphere from the moment we arrived. Our guides Kieran and Maddi were fun, relaxed and very responsible, making sure we all had the best and safest time for all four zip lines. The view from on top of the mountain was incredible, the zip lines were such a great way to see the city from above, all while going across the valley and close to the pine trees. I’d recommend this for anyone looking for an exiting time with a great activity!

I really loved the zipline itself - amazing view, great staff taking us, fantastic experience! My only flaw would be the price. We took the single zip line for $75, and felt although the experience was awesome, it was quite overpriced for what you get. Would have loved a complimentary photo, or video of the experience, and some background information of the park whilst driving to the location. Just felt like the tour was overpriced and expensive. Next time I would pay a little bit more and do the full tour.

Had a brilliant experience on the Christchurch Ziplines. This setup is very slick, safety conscious, and an all-weather event (except strong winds). The tour guides know their stuff and were a pleasure to be with. They are all very safety orientated and take great care of their guests (Jake & Blake in our case). The 4 zips get more exilerating as you progress, so the first 2 are really settling if you are at all nervous to begin with. The whole adventure site is very well thought out and caters for all types of activities. Great for biking and walking as well as the Zip lines. All ages can enjoy this area if you like outdoor pursuits. Great job all round

Did the 4zipline tour on a beautiful day in Christchurch. The initial introduction was informal professional and friendly. The donning of the equipment was also professional.
The tour itself was magnificent with each line explained and completed with great customer service.
Very proud to have this facility in Christchurch

After getting geared up with all our safety equipment we headed off with our 2 guides to a great chairlift. After an amazing ride up into the hills we get some fab panoramic photos back down to Christchurch. Now for the really fun bit - the ziplines! I loved that there were dual lines, bringing a bit of racing competitiveness to the whole adventure. We felt safe and comfortable the entire time. We had a great time!

I like to lay back.
It's a zip line, you can hold on if you choose, throw your arms out, go limp like a rag doll, the experience is up to you, on the last line you go from mountain to mountain so it is quite amazing. There was a storm when I went so it was like being hit by 20 billion tiny agonizing daggers ..... incredibly painful but exhilarating but that is part of the rush! Will I get hit by lightning or not!?
hi, looking at bringing a family of 4 in december, chair lift and zip line. does that work together?

Sure does, the chair lift comes with the zip line price. You catch the chair lift to the top of the mountain and then zip line back down!
