One of the most exhilarating things to do on the Garden Route, the Tsitsikamma Waterfall Zipline Tour at Tsitsikamma Falls Adventures delivers high-octane adrenaline, exciting, fun, family friendly, adventure, extreme, wildlife, nature, and water sport-like thrills (with the rush of gliding over rushing waters). This iconic zipline experience is perfect for couples seeking a romantic edge, honeymoon couples craving memorable moments, or bucket list seekers on a road trip. It's all weather fun, operating even on rainy days when the waterfalls roar louder, adding extra magic and mist to the adventure, no safari or dedicated hiking/trails, but the gorge views and indigenous flora provide stunning nature immersion, with glimpses of wildlife like birds and forest creatures.
