Ziplines-also known as flying foxes, aerial runways, or ropeslides-bring high-speed excitement to adventure parks, events, and even indoor venues. While permanent zipwires are a staple of forest adventure parks, they’re also perfect for temporary installations at events or tradeshows, offering a unique thrill that draws crowds and creates memorable experiences.

Designing for Maximum Fun and Efficiency

A key factor in zipline planning is visitor flow. To avoid long lines and bottlenecks, entrance and exit areas must be designed for quick turnover, especially when serving more than 15 riders per hour. Simple launch platforms can be attached to trees or poles and accessed by ladders, while towers or scaffolding with integrated stairways further boost capacity. For even greater efficiency, platforms can connect to existing buildings via internal or external staircases.

At the end of the ride, staff typically disconnect harnesses at a finish platform 3-5 meters above ground. Some layouts allow riders to glide until their feet touch the ground, where a bungee cord system releases the harness. For courses over water or rugged terrain, detachable trolleys make it easy to return equipment to the launch point. Variations even include paragliding-style landings, where guests jog to a stop before detaching.
