NZone Skydive Up to 15,000ft Tickets

Experience the ultimate adrenaline rush with a tandem skydive from up to 15,000 feet above Queenstown's spectacular landscape. This NZone skydiving experience combines the thrill of freefall with unmatched views of Lake Wakatipu, the Remarkables mountain range, and the Southern Alps.

Your adventure begins at a sheep farm at the base of the Remarkables, where you'll meet your experienced tandem instructor and receive comprehensive safety briefing. After gearing up in provided jumpsuit, harness, goggles, and frap hat, you'll board the specially equipped aircraft for a scenic ascent through Queenstown's dramatic terrain. The 15-minute flight offers preview glimpses of the Wakatipu Basin and turquoise lake waters below.

At altitude, you'll experience up to 60 seconds of pure freefall at terminal velocity before your parachute opens for a peaceful 4-5 minute glide back to earth. The entire experience takes approximately three hours from check-in to landing.

  • Freefall from up to 15,000 feet with 60 seconds of pure adrenaline

  • Scenic aircraft ascent from picturesque sheep farm location
