Fly over the orchards

A tour with Ceres Zipslide Adventures is not just for adrenaline junkies. Put on the harness and give it a try. As soon as you leave the platform, you can’t help but shriek with delight. The zipline will take you over river pools, pear orchards and rock formations with Skurweberg in the background – the longest span is a whopping 290 m! Where? The office is at 1 Voortrekker Street – it’s the first place you’ll see when you come into town from Michell’s Pass. How much? R400 per person. Hire a GoPro (R150) and make a video of your adventure. Kids have to be older than 3 to use the zipline and the outing takes 1 – 2 hours, depending on the size of your group. Contact: 079 245 0354; 078 063 5134; ceresadventures.co.za
