EcoZip Adventures is a state-of-the-art flying fox zipline and eco-immersive forest walk experience that is perfect for nature lovers of all ages .
The adventure begins with a complimentary pick-up from the island's ferry terminal at Matiatia Wharf or from Oneroa Village bus stop if you're already on the island. During the journey to the site on Trig Hill, you'll enjoy a "mini-tour" of the island. Upon arrival, you will be checked in, geared up, and readied for one of Auckland's most eco-friendly activities.
The adventure includes three 200m dual flying fox ziplines that will fly you smoothly side-by-side with a partner, friend, or relative down into a stunning tract of original and regenerating native 'bush' (forest). It's a scenic interpretive walk back to base, where you'll learn about local flora and fauna and the conservation of our spectacular natural environment. With a choice of drop-off locations afterward, you'll have plenty of things to do on the island.
The adventure is priced at $139 per adult and $79 per child. Family passes are also available for $357 and are valid for 2 adults & 2 children (aged 15 & under) or 1 adult & 3 children.
