Experience the longest zip line in Europe – Velocity 2. Zip World is situated in the decommissioned Penrhyn slate quarry, once the largest quarry of its kind in the world! The zip wire sends you 125 mph through the air, 1.5 km over Penrhyn Quarry lake, clipped to a racing harness.
Zip World has a few locations throughout Snowdonia as well as other activities in Penrhyn Quarry. You can take a tour around the slate mine or go quarry carting on the UK’s first mountain cart track! Wind through the slate mine beneath tunnels and around hairpin bends.
Another popular choice are the Zip World Slate Caverns at Blaenau Ffestiniog. There are cavern exploring adventures and another zip line called Titan 2. You can also go on an underground trampoline obstacle course called Bounce Below. For those interested in the history, there's a Deep Mine Tour which takes you into the 200-year-old slate mines. Included on this trip is the chance to travel 500 feet into the ground on the steepest train of its kind in Europe.
