Meeting point:Victoria Falls Bridge
Activity description
The bridge slide is exciting and mildly adventurous but friendly for all ages from ten years up – either alone or with a friend.
Beginning from a platform on the Zambian bank, the zipline glides 300 meters over the rapids in the Batoka Gorge below providing incomparable views of The Falls before gently coming to rest on the Zimbabwean side of the bridge.
Of all the bridge activities, the bridge slide is certainly the tamest one. People of all ages can do it from toddlers to old-timers. It does provide a bit of an adrenaline rush, not enough for you to question all of your life choices, but enough to make you want to do it again.
You will need to cross the Victoria Falls Bridge to where the Bridge Cafe is located. Once you've checked in and signed all your paperwork, you are strapped into your harness and walk up to the platform on the Zambian edge of the Batoka Gorge. You can choose to go at it alone or in tandem.
The zipline goes for 300 meters over the Zambezi River rapids in the Batoka Gorge below giving you a spectacular view of the Zambezi River and gorge before you are gently brought over to the Victoria Falls Bridge. Then you take a short walk under the bridge to the Zimbabwean edge of the Batoka.
