Why it's on Icebreaker

Mega Zipline Iceland

The Svartagljúfur canyon sits right beside the switchbacks down into Hveragerði, and almost everyone drives past without noticing it. Mega Zipline, the longest and fastest in Iceland, was built to fix that. You sign a waiver at Árhólmar 1, by the Reykjadalur trailhead, learn three positions (pencil to speed up, starfish to slow down, legs up to land), ride a van part of the way and hike the last five to ten minutes to the launch tower. From there two parallel cables drop a full kilometre off the plateau into the valley. Go seated, as Free as a Bird, or headfirst as Superman, strapped into what feels like a very sturdy apron. The sheep below may look up when you start hollering. Minimum age nine.

From the Icebreaker app, curated with The Reykjavík Grapevine.
