the ledge bungy
 If
you’re after an unforgettable urban bungy experience The
Ledge is legendary.
The fun factor is definitely a ten and the views of Lake Wakatipu
and The Remarkables are out of this world.
The Queenstown Ledge Bungy offers a number of unique choices as
well. You can choose a body harness or an ankle tie, jump off
either the mild or the wild side of the platform, take a running
jump or a sedate swan dive, or even a reverse somersault. You get
to choose the method that suits your personality, and gives you
the maximum rush. The jump ticket includes a T-shirt and the
price of the Skyline gondola trip. From Queenstown you can
complete the bungy jump and round trip on the gondola in one
hour. The Ledge platform is cantilevered out from the cliff face,
400 metres above the town, and directly below the Skyline lookout
terrace.
In addition, The Ledge Bungy Sky Swing is the latest AJ. Hackett
creation for thrill seekers looking for a new gravity defying
experience. You are strapped into a full harness and then lowered
3 metres down the rock face. After the usual heart-stopping
countdown you pull the self-release cord and free fall at a
sickening pace until the cable tension sends you flying through
the air in a huge arc.
Watch the jumpers on The Ledge from the Skyline observation deck
for a while and enjoy their antics. You can then decide which
super hero you wish to emulate on your own jump. You can run,
jump, back flip, spiral or fly any which way to get the most
adrenalin-pumping action. The high elevation and panoramic views
over the town far below, make this a fabulous free-falling
experience.
For a truly surreal sensation launch yourself off the Ledge at
night and watch the lights of Queenstown spin in a multi-coloured
kaleidoscope below you. |
