Description

Embark on an exciting adventure on this 3.5-hour tour, soaring through the air on Iceland's longest and fastest zipline, overlooking the charming town of Hveragerdi near Reykjavik. This exhilarating journey is perfect for thrill-seekers and nature enthusiasts, offering breathtaking views of the Svartagljufur gorge adorned with cascading waterfalls.

Your excursion begins with a convenient bus transfer from Reykjavik BSI bus terminal, with optional pick-up available for an extra fee. Upon arrival, you'll receive an admission pass and gear up with the necessary safety equipment, including a specialized harness and helmet. 

Be prepared for an adrenaline rush like no other with two parallel lines on the Mega Zipline, allowing pairs to enjoy the flight together. The experience takes approximately 3 hours and 15 minutes, including transfers, with the Mega Zipline tour around 40 minutes.

Mega Zipline is suspended over the Svartagljufur canyon, starting at the Kambar plateau and ending near a cafe at the Reykjadalur hot spring valley trailhead. The two parallel lines, each more than 0.6 miles (1 kilometer) long, offer a thrilling ride at an average slope of 10 degrees. 

Your zipline experience begins from the reception area by the Reykjadalur trailhead, where an experienced instructor provides safety instructions and equips you with the necessary gear. This tour includes the conventional ride, the most popular way of riding the zipline.

From the reception, a short drive takes you to the start of the Svartagljufur canyon, followed by a picturesque 10-15 minute walk to the flight tower at the Kambar plateau. During this walk, you'll marvel at the stunning views of the canyon, waterfalls, and columnized basalt.

After a safety briefing at the flight tower, you'll take the plunge down the zipline for the flight of your life. You'll fly at a relaxed speed, allowing you to appreciate the scenery as you soar high. Automatic cameras along the line capture unforgettable moments, providing lasting memories of your day.

Once the flight ends, a quick return to the reception area lets you drop off your gear, view your video or photographs, explore the gift shop, and relive the excitement. 

Don't miss out on this immersive experience that combines an adrenaline rush with the unparalleled beauty of Iceland's natural wonders. Seize the opportunity to witness the country's spectacular landscapes while soaring on its longest zipline.
