About Skyswing Rotorua

A thrill ride on the Skyline Rotorua site on Fairy Springs Road, Fairy Springs. Riders sit in a three-person swing hoisted 50 metres above the site, with views over Lake Rotorua. The rider pulls the release, and the swing drops into freefall and swings out over the city, reaching speeds of up to 150 kph. The site describes it as the highest and fastest adrenaline ride in Rotorua.

Tickets are sold per person, and children aged 5 to 14 have a child ticket price. Second rides are valid on the same day only. Riders must be at least 110 cm tall, and children aged 5 to 7 must be accompanied by an adult on the ride. Under-13s need a parent or guardian present when the ticket is bought. The combined weight of the three riders must not exceed 350 kg. On-site ride footage can be bought on USB or AirDrop from the Skyswing office, and annual cardholder discounts can be used at the Skyline terminal or the Skyswing booth. Riders describe the view as stunning, and say the wait with the cord in hand can feel scarier than the drop itself.
