Hollybank Treetops Zipline Tour

1 to 4 hours

Overview

This guided zipline tour at Hollybank takes you from the forest floor up into the treetops on a series of wires and platforms. It includes Australia’s longest zipline at 400 metres, crossing above the Piper River and reaching up to 50 metres over the forest floor. Safety equipment, training and a guide are included, along with digital photos from the experience. It’s a good pick if you want an active half-day near Launceston rather than a standard sightseeing stop.

Why backpackers love it

If you’re after one memorable outdoor activity near Launceston, this gives you more than a quick single zip ride. You get a guided course through the trees, solid views over the forest and river, and photos included, which saves paying extra later. The small group size also makes it feel less chaotic than larger adventure parks. It’s not a cheap activity, but for travellers wanting a proper adrenaline hit in Tasmania, it’s an easy one to plan.

What to expect

The experience starts with training and getting fitted with your safety gear before heading out with your guide. From there, you’ll move through the canopy between Cloud Station platforms, travelling on wires through the forest. The big standout is the long 400-metre zipline over the Piper River, which gives you the highest and fastest section of the tour. Group sizes are capped at 12, so it stays fairly personal. Wear closed-toe shoes and comfortable clothes, and avoid skirts or dresses. If you’re booking, note that tour times are confirmed after your request is received.
