Nevis Bungy
A jump pod suspended in the middle of the Nevis Valley, offering New Zealand's highest bungy jump at 134 metres, plus the world's largest canyon swing.
Nevis Bungy is operated by AJ Hackett. The jump platform is a pod suspended in the middle of the canyon on steel cables. The freefall lasts about 8.5 seconds, making it New Zealand's highest bungy jump. The site also has the Nevis Swing, a giant canyon swing, and the Nevis Catapult. Access is only by shuttle from the AJ Hackett centre in Queenstown town centre, with the drive taking about 45 minutes over a 4WD track across private farmland. Bungy jumps cost from about NZD 300, must be booked in advance, and are open to people weighing 45–127 kg. The full trip, including transport, takes about 4 hours.
