Shotover Canyon Fox And Swing
Help code: 3410-2775
One of Queenstown's must-do activities, the Shotover Canyon Swing and Fox combo will even give hardcore adventurers butterflies. Combining two thrilling adventures - the Shotover Canyon Swing and the Shotover Canyon Fox - these activities cement Queenstown's status as the 'Adventure Capital of the World'. The Shotover Canyon will see you drop from a 109 metre high platform above Shotover River for a smooth and exhilarating 200 metre swing. Reaching speeds of up to 150 kph you can enjoy the swing on your own or with a friend. To shake things up a bit from the normal adventure activity, there's a jump menu to let you choose how you take your 60 metre free fall.
You can go backwards, forwards, from a chair or do a flip to name a few. The second adventure included in this awesome package is the Shotover Canyon Fox. The first of its kind, the Canyon Fox takes you 182 metres above the Shotover River on a launch rail, or run off the 8 metre ramp, before dropping you down 5 metres and flying you 240 metres across the Canyon. Then take on line 2 with a friend and race back to the other side, 138 metres above the canyon.
Both of these activities offer incredible views of the Shotover Canyon if you can bear to open your eyes and hold in the screams. This package includes return transport from Queenstown and the chance to bring along a friend for free to watch you lose your mind. All you'll need to bring is yourself, closed in footwear and appropriate clothing, the rest is awaiting you at the launch site. Book your Shotover Canyon Swing and Fox online today to ensure you have the most memorable and epic time on your next trip to Queenstown.

Shotover Canyon Fox
“ This was hands down the highlight of my trip! I swallowed my nerves and tackled both adrenaline-pumping activities and I'm glad I did! After being too scared to move on the Fox (it's very high) and getting the guys to slowly push me off, I made up for it on the Swing by doing the tandem Gimp Boy Goes To Hollywood (upside down) and I'm glad I did! This experience will stay with me for a while and the videos and photos were great to look back on! Loved it!

6 years agoThe Shotover Canyon Swing opened in 2002, while the Canyon Fox was added later in 2016 - and both offer incredible Shotover Canyon views..
