Okere Falls Zipline Experience

Ready to zip?

Rotorua Ziplines is all about connecting you with Papatūānuku (Mother Nature) and Maori culture through eco-adventure tourism. If you are a thrill-seeker with a soft spot for nature, this 2-hour tour at Ōkere Falls Scenic Reserve is just for you.

Zipline over three waterfalls on four lines, hitting speeds up to 40 km/h (the longest line is 236 meters!). One of the waterfalls, Tutea Falls, is 7 meters tall and holds the record for the highest waterfall you can commercially raft down.

Nature meets adventure

But there’s more to this adventure than zipping through the air. You’ll also walk on swing bridges and hand-built boardwalks built right in the middle of a forest filled with native trees like rimu, totara, and kahikatea. Take a break, enjoy the view, and see if you can spot any wildlife, like the kereru, a local pigeon, or maybe even a kiwi bird (they're rare though).

The guides are super friendly and know loads about the area's history and how the Maori people are connected to this land. To top it all off, try some traditional Maori tea and plant a tree — you're having fun and helping the planet at the same time. It's a win-win for you and nature!
