OUR STORY
Ziptrek was founded in 2001 in Whistler,
Canada with a goal of providing
a unique experience combining
nature-based learning with a rush
of adrenaline in a safe environment.
In December 2009 Trent Yeo opened
the first global Ziptrek operation in
Queenstown, New Zealand and became
New Zealand’s original zipline tour.
We opened on Bob’s Peak with the
Moa 4 line tour and in November 2010,
we launched the Kea 6 line tour which
claims the title of the steepest tree to
tree zipline in the world!
We wanted to do a team building event in
style and thought what better way than flying
through the trees with stunning views of
Lake Wakatipu!” – ZOE RICHARDSON, VEOLIA WATER AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND

The Moa tour comprises of four ziplines
starting and finishing at the top of
the Skyline gondola. The Moa tour is
designed to start low and slow and
gradually builds your confidence as it
gets progressively longer, higher
and faster.

STEEPEST ZIPLINE.
The Kea tour has six ziplines and is
faster and longer than the Moa tour,
finishing with a zipline ride that
descends 30 storeys at speeds of up to
70kph! The Kea tour is a truly unique
way to get down the mountain and
returns you to the bottom of the hill
on a total high.
CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE.

to Queenstown adventure or after
something with a little more
exhilaration, we have you covered.

TOURS
LOGISTICS
We run tours in small, personalised groups of up to 10 persons, with each group
having two Ziptrek Guides accompanying them and taking care of everything
technical. We split larger groups into these smaller blocks and run them one after
the other, 15 minutes apart. Alternatively, we can offer a continuous zipping
experience if this works better for your group’s dynamics.
Call us now for a tailored experience designed specifically for your next group event.
TEAM BUILDING
Our team building activities offer a personalised tour hosted by our Ziptrek guides.
In between zipping through the first four ziplines of our course, we incorporate
a range of mental and physical challenges on stunning treehouse platforms and
throughout the surrounding Douglas Fir forest. These challenges can be tailored to
suit your group’s requirements, expectations and needs. A unique advantage of our
team building option is that all participants start and finish at the same time.
Branding at the Treehouse and/or tree platforms is available, as well as F&B options.
BESPOKE GROUPS
If you are looking at delivering a truly unique experience for your group, please
contact us directly to discuss a range of alternative options from our normal group
tour offerings. We are able to offer exclusive use of our zipline course for your
needs, including a ‘Continuous Zip’ option. This option allows us to get participants
through quickly if you are working to a tight schedule and also ties nicely in with
any function or event you may already be partaking in at the Skyline gondola
facility - we are able to host guests personally and escort them up and down to
Ziptrek in small groups, returning them to their function after they have zipped.
