Heading over 4 different zip lines with different, but all extremely beautiful views, was the highlight of our trip! The staff does a great job ensuring everyones safety and making the experience the best possible for everyone. This was one of our cruise stops and such a memorable way to spend the day in Akureyri. A simple and not too far of a walk from the port. A must do if you are planning a vis!

It was a truly amazing experience. Stephanie and the gentlemen who were the guides were so knowledgeable and kind. They both certainly knew their job and we felt safe at all times. I would highly recommend this. 10 min cab ride from cruise port.

Guides are great, funny, personable and make you feel very safe. Scenery is amazing, and zips are not so high or fast as to scare newbies. Great for the kids, families. Location is easily walkable from town or cruise port.
Shout out to Jonh, the only Habs fan in Akureyri.

The guides were extremely informative and personable. The ziplines, 5 in total, were good lengths and the views were awesome. Must be able to walk on uneven, loose ground as the trail is still being constructed Highly recommended

Far exceeded expectations. Not just a zip down a hill. A zip down a river. Most river zips are across the river. This one was more like across and down the river. Well thought out series of zips. And they teach you tricks.
