| | | | |  Go ahead - Jump | | | | |
It's official - South Africa is home to the highest commercial bungee jump in the world. The 216-metre Bloukrans Bridge attracts adventure-seekers from all around the world, and for good reason. The bridge is situated along the scenic Garden Route and the slick, ultra-professional bungy operation is run by Face Adrenalin. A new addition to Bloukrans is the Flying Fox cable slide – a great option for families and groups.
The same company also offers a range of jumps on the much lower Gouritz River Bridge. It’s here that you’ll also find South Africa's only bridge swinging operation, run by Wildthing Adventures.
[And if you're not sure what the difference is between bungy jumping and bridge swinging, then read on. With bungy, you jump off a bridge, held on by giant elastic bands - usually but not always tied to your feet. Bridge swinging involves jumping from one bridge, while tied to climbing ropes suspended from an adjacent bridge].
