Zipline Express

THIS TOUR HAS BEEN TERMINATED 

Two ziplines with three activities. We do all the fun stuff in less time. We start by crossing the river on Leap of Faith (our shortest zipline), and after a little hike uphill, we whiz down big rush, spiderman style, if you want, and then we add in the bonus round. 

Our awesome zipline adventures short version. Ideal for those travellers who want to do a lot of fun but have little time. Capacity: Max 7 people (it’s almost a private tour. 😉  Duration: 45 – 60 min.

Price: ISK 7.900kr.

About this experience

Availability

We have daily departures from Easter to Christmas (or thereabout).

Duration

The whole tour takes 45 – 60 minutes. Depending on the size and shape of the group, along with weather conditions.

Included

All safety equipment, ride to the starting point from the meeting point, certificated guided hike and two ziplines.

You will need

Hiking shoes and warm, windproof clothes – dress according to the weather; gloves and a thin beanie are optional. We recommend braiding long hair or tying it in a low bun to fit under the helmet.

Meeting Point

Víkurbrat 5, Vík í Mýrdal, South Iceland (check map). Please arrive 10-15 minutes before your departure time.

Weather

Sometimes we need to change departure times slightly due to the weather. Please check your email before your booked time and leave us a phone number so we can call or text you in case we have to contact you with changes in the schedule.

First

Our Zipline is next to the village of Vík in South Iceland, surrounded by beautiful hills and valleys. It is not directly accessible by vehicle, so after we meet at our base at Víkurbraut 5, we drive for about 3 minutes, then hike for another 5 minutes at a moderate pace to reach our shortest line, Leap of Faith. Here we send you across the zipline one by one until we’re all on the right side of the river. Don’t forget to strike a pose; this is the best spot for a photo op.

Second

From here, we hike uphill a little, not long (we promise 🙂 ), and find ourselves at our 120 meters long Big Rush. This is most people’s favourite zipline, and you can zip across it in spiderman-style if you wish. 

Third

Our third activity on those two ziplines will remain dark for now. We like it when we throw in a bit of surprise, and we think you also like that. After this little happy hour, we head to the bus and return to base.

Sneak Peak

Leap of Faith

We like to keep this part as a bit of mystery. Silence is golden. 

The Surprise

We might tell you what’s happening here. Or… we might not!

Big Rush

The steep and fast wire makes up this zipline and spans 140 meters to the end platform.

Hiking boots

Remember your hiking boots! You will be travelling in Iceland, our terrain is more or less untouched, and we would like to keep it that way. That’s why we don’t make concrete walking paths in the landscape but follow narrow, uneven sheep trails along our trails. Hiking boots help when the route is wet and slippery and support your ankles if you are unused to walking on uneven surfaces.
