How High Is Velocity 2?

The Fastest Zip Line in the World just got Faster
The new development offers a completely different experience for riders from kit up to landing as they soar through the air at speed, 500 feet above the lake in Penrhyn Quarry.

How long does Velocity 2 last?

The journey takes around 20 minutes up a windy, rocky quarry road. It's a bumpy ride but the views are pretty impressive! Well…for us that was the views that we could see through the fog! It's a necessary drive since the start of Velocity 2 is so high up.

How tall is Zipworld?

Whatever speed you fly at, the acceleration at launch is incredible and at an altitude of 700ft over the lake, the most amazing view (if you have your eyes open!).
