Organized by AJ Hackett Queenstown Activity description
The Nevis Swing is not simply the most famous Queenstown Swing. It is not merely the most famous New Zealand Swing. This is the most famous swing in the whole world!
After being lifted out above the launch deck, suspended 160 metres above the canyon floor, you’re suddenly released and find yourself rushing towards the other side of the valley at 120kph, eyes wide open in disbelief or shut tight in fear.
You want to go upside-down? No problem. Backwards? Done. How about the Truck & Trailer? Some Ying & Yang action? Alone or with a friend? The Nevis Swing offers so many choices that you’ll be glad it leaves you breathless and hungry for more, so that you can try as many styles as your nerves can handle.
Still want more!? Upgrade to the Nevis Combo and enjoy not only the World’s Most Famous Swing but also New Zealand's Highest Bungy!

If you wish to take a camera out to the jump platform, or you wish to jump with a camera attached to you, it needs to be safely secured to your person to ensure it cannot be dropped. Jumping with a camera is entirely at your own risk and ONLY at the discretion of the Jump Operations Crew. The legal waiver you sign when checking in fully indemnifies AJ Hackett Bungy NZ of any loss or injury associated with you jumping with your camera.
