Zipline in China


Zipline, also named Zip Wire, Aerial Runway, Death Slide, Flying Fox, etc., consists of a pulley suspended on a cable and usually mounted on a slope. It’s designed to enable a user propelled by gravity to slide from the top to the bottom of an inclined cable by holding on to or attaching to the freely moving pulley.



In some remote areas in China, such as Nujiang Valley in Yunnan Province, Weining in Guizhou Province, ziplines served as the purposes of bridges across rivers though now most of them have been replaced by real bridges.


Apart from this, zip line was used in alpine self rescue and military assault in early times in China, and now, it comes in many other forms as a mean of entertainment full of challenge, excitement and joy. When short and low, the zipline is designed for children play and usually found on some playgrounds. While longer and higher rides are often used as a means of accessing remote areas, such as forest canopy in scenic spots.


Nowadays, zipline tours are becoming popular vacation activities among Chinese, and can be found many outdoor adventure camps and upscale resorts, where they may be an element on a larger challenge ropes course.
