High Wire Gorge Activities — Flying Fox, Zip Line & Gorge Swing

About the Adventure

Wild Horizons' "High Wire" site rigs a network of cables across the Batoka Gorge, 120 metres above the valley floor — and unlike the bridge activities, it's entirely on the Zimbabwean side, so no passport or border crossing is needed. - **Flying Fox** — clipped into a harness on a pulley, you glide along an almost-horizontal cable across the gorge for a flying sensation. The gentlest option and a great warm-up. - **Zip Line (Foofie Slide)** — an angled cable twice the length of the Flying Fox, where you accelerate downhill at speeds over 100 km/h. Solo or tandem; genuinely exhilarating. - **Gorge Swing** — the big one: jump from a 120-metre cliff platform, free-fall around 70 metres, then swing out away from the rock in a vast arc. The most intense activity on site.

Pricing

Half-day combos and a Canopy Tour combo offer better value than single bookings.

Good to Know

• Age limit: From 10 years.
• Included: Hotel transfers, soft drinks and iced water, Medical Air Rescue Service (MARS) cover, and a recovery system so there's no walk-out.
• No passport required — it's on the Zimbabwe side, away from the border zone.
• Tandem is available on the Zip Line and Gorge Swing — good for sharing the leap.

Good to Pair With
