Jungle Surfing takes you into the beating heart of the Daintree Rainforest on a guided tour through six tree platforms, seven ziplines and the world's first Human Hamster Wheel cable lift. The platforms range from 5 to 19.5 metres above the ground and each one reveals a different level of the rainforest ecosystem with unique and spectacular views into the canopy, over the treetops, down to bubbling creeks and out to the Great Barrier Reef. Our guides are with you every step of the way, offering interpretive talks on each platform, they also control your flight throughout the tour, so there's no experience necessary. The two-hour tour runs in all weathers with at least one hour up in the rainforest canopy. The tours suit all ages from three to 103 and is a must do experiences for anyone visiting Queensland.

Two hour guided zipline and tree platform tour through the Daintree Rainforest with at least 1 hour in the rainforest canopy.
You’ll start with the Human Hamster Wheel harnessing the energy of enthusiastic jungle surfers to hoist riders up to the first tree platform.
Then you’ll glide through the different levels of the canopy, with bird’s eye views over the treetops, down to cascading streams and out to the Great Barrier Reef.
The longest span is over 75 metres and the platforms range from 3.5m to 19.5m high, offering an up-close and personal experience with nature at her spectacular best, and incredible photo opportunities.
The tour is fully guided three guides to maximum 13 guests and no experience is necessary.
The abseiling and scientist guides share their rainforest wit and wisdom with interpretive talks on each platform and the team use a unique system to control your flight, making this the only flying fox in the world where you can fly hands-free and carefree.

Conditions: Pre-booking is required. We will only pick up our pre-booked customers and private vehicles are not permitted on our property, so you must book beforehand if you wish to come on a tour. Jungle Surfing is popular throughout the year (especially during school holidays) and many tours are fully booked, so it is advisable to book a few days in advance.
Anyone can jungle surf. Our oldest Jungle Surfer to date was 89, and no great physical strength is required. However, there is a 250m walk to the first Platform along a narrow forest trail and another short walk from the final Platform back to the harnessing centre. During the tour, the guides do all the work and the customer can just sit back and enjoy the ride. If you have restricted mobility or a medical condition about which you are concerned please give us a call to discuss your requirements prior to the tour and we will be happy to help.
Your child will be fitted into their own junior harness and will travel independently throughout the tour. They will not be attached to your adult harness. However, from Platforms 1-2, 2-3 and 3-4 you will travel along the cables in pairs, only a few metres apart. On Platforms 4-5 and 5-6, you will fly singly. On the final zipline 6-7, you'll be racing side by side to the ground. If you have a small child, we recommend that two persons accompany the child, one travelling ahead and one behind the child.
