One of the most thrilling high-adrenaline experiences is a Victoria Falls Gorge Swing.

Victoria Falls Gorge Swing vs Bridge Swing
There are 2 swing options.
The gorge swing is leaping off the edge of the gorge into the abyss below at high speed.
The bridge swing makes you leap from the famous Victoria Falls Bridge over the gorge.
These options offer 2 totally different views of the chasm you are leaping into.
What Is The Swing?
The Victoria Falls swing allows you to experience an adrenaline rush like no other, with the added bonus of having one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World rushing past beside you.
Ever wanted to know what it feels like to fly? Then this is the activity for you!
Both of these novel adrenaline activities consist of a giant swing above the heaving water below with a gut-wrenching free fall before you begin swinging. The free-fall is the scary bit!
The Gorge Swing

The gorge swing takes off from the edge of the Batoka Gorge, hence the name gorge swing.
This swing takes you across the width of the chasm on one of the most fun and exhilarating activities in Victoria Falls.
When sitting in the harness you can reach speeds of 180km per hour and experience an amazing 95-meter-wide pendulum swing after being suspended in a free fall for almost four seconds in a drop of 120 meters.
This thrilling big air experience of the Victoria Falls gorge swing is well worth the money.
The Bridge Swing
The Victoria Falls bridge swing swings you length-wise in the gorge in a diagonal to the cliff walls.
For an 80-meter freefall, you will step from the Victoria Falls Bridge in an upright position. You’ll transform into a human pendulum as you get closer to the Zambezi River and swing in a wide arc alongside the thunderous waterfall.
Take a companion with you if you don’t want to enter the abyss alone, and you can both scream as the adrenaline rushes through your body.
While being slowly winched back to the platform on the swing, you have the added benefit of taking in the breathtaking views of the Batoka Gorge.
You have the option of descending the bridge forward, backward, or in tandem.
The Procedure
Our highly-trained teams welcome you to their platforms and will talk you through the safety instructions.
Once the team members are sure you are ready and understand the procedure they will then get you kitted up for the swing.
The harness is first attached to your torso, instead of your ankles as in the bungee jump, and then the jumping ropes are added. At the other end, it is attached to the middle of the cable where it pivots.
You then leap off the edge, free-falling before going into the long pendulum type swing as the ropes pivot from the suspended cable.
Where Are The Gorge Swing And Bridge Swing?
The gorge, situated below the waterfall, is a chasm that has been carved out of the rock by previous positions of the waterfall. This type of huge crevice in the earth is rarely seen anywhere else in the world and is quite an awesome sight to behold.
The chasm is 316 metres wide and 120 metres deep at the position where the high wire creates the swing. An impressive and daunting sight when standing on the edge ready to jump.
As you are being winched back up to the gorge platform or the bridge, after having fearlessly dropped into the chasm, take the opportunity to marvel at the incredible view and the power of the churning water that created this phenomenon.
If you want company on your adventure, do a tandem jump on both swings! Have double the fun and share the mighty Victoria Falls gorge swing and bridge swing together.
You will never forget the Zambezi gorge swing experience of jumping into the air at the Batoka Gorge.
Alternative High-Wire Option
An alternative high-wire activity is the Victoria Falls Zip Line.
This is not as scary as the swing but you still get to cross the gorge at high speed and take in the magnificent views. Suitable for all ages and can be enjoyed by the whole family.
