Are you ready to soar over waterfalls, zoom through pristine native forests, and be enlightened through a hands-on cultural and ecological experience in Okere Falls, Rotorua? If so, then Rotorua Ziplines has you covered. Suitable for a wide range of ages and abilities, a network of ziplines, swing bridges, and boardwalks will have you in awe for 2.5 hours as you fly, walk and gaze at the stunning taiao (Environment) that is Ōkere.
Born through an intimate connection with the Ōkere Awa (Kaituna River), this joint venture between Ngāti Hinerangi and Rotorua Rafting’s Ōkere Falls born and bred, Sam Sutton, has been created to showcase its mauri (spirit) and importance with Aotearoa’s soon to be premier zipline experience.
Ensuring that our taiao is enhanced through the very operation will have every guest leaving a tree in their name as Rotorua Ziplines reforestation project plant its way towards 60,000 native trees by the end of 2025 to see Ōkere Falls thrive for generations to come.

5.00In two hours our guides, Josh and Benny took our family from zipljne to zipline, enthusiastically sharing fascinating information on land, nature and culture. This venture,while in the midst of a stunningly beautiful landscape, actually keeps improving the Forrest rather than damaging it. We had a lot of fun!
Exhilarating 'in-the air' experience!

5.00A must experience for when in Rotorua. Beautiful scenery during the activity, a well -organised company with professional, knowledgeable and friendly staff. There were moments of awe, joy and exhilaration. Their vision of planting trees for each guest that books with them is a great initiative.
Very nice experience

5.00A fantastic experience with extremely nice and well-read guides. In addition to Zipline, we got a lot of information about nature and culture back in time. They took very long and we really got to try both zipline and to walk over a kind of suspension bridge. Well worth a visit. There was a nice café right next door where we had lunch afterwards.
Ziplines!
