Graskop Gorge South Africa

George has a sophisticated infrastructure with banks, conference facilities, businesses and shopping chains including the newly completed Garden Route Shopping Centre, transport and sporting facilities, yet retaining its small town atmosphere. The town is also a major accommodation centre. As a potential bungee jumping site, Graskop Gorge offers you a peerless freefall from a height of 18-19 stories of Foefie slide. As you leap off, the cord will take you across the entire width of the gorge in a single sweep. Catch the spectacular beauty of the Graskop Falls as you trail across in the super-fast zipline like a bird.

Corinth Canal Greece

The Corinth Canal is a canal that connects the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It cuts through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth and separates the Peloponnesian peninsula from the Greek mainland, thus effectively making the former an island. The canal is 6.3 kilometres in length and was built between 1881 and 1893. The Corinth Canal works as a connector between mainland Greece and the Peloponnese. If you like to plunge down to the canal’s depth, just take a bungee jump from the bridge. This is a regular weekend sport organized by the Zulu Bungy in the summer months.

tongariro National Park

The oldest national park in New Zealand, Tongariro National Park is also the forth oldest in the world. Home to three of the world’s most active live volcanoes, Ruapehu, Tongariro and Ngauruhoe, Tongariro National Park covers 795m2 of the North Islands volcanic plateau, creating an environment rich in beauty, history and geological fascination. It is a dual World Heritage site, protected for both its natural and cultural significance. Its landscape is diverse. Herb groves and beech forests give way to barren tussock-dotted desert and stark grey lava flow mountains slope away from their snowy peaks to broad plateaus where hot springs steam and bubble. A vital part of any North Island vacation itinerary, the park provides a range of adventures through all seasons. Two of New Zealand’s largest ski fields, Whakapapa and Turoa, are on the magnificent slopes of Mount Ruapehu and skiing and snowboarding here has the added attraction of fun on an active volcanoe! There is not only winter enjoyment to be had in this remarkable area. Tourism operators provide a myriad of activities in and around the national park and there is plenty of excellent accommodation available from camping grounds to luxurious lodges. Hiking and tramping are popular pursuits in Tongariro National Park and there are a number of great walks to do, not least of all the Tongariro Crossing. As in the case of all hikes in New Zealand, please be well prepared and ask local operators for advice and assistance as the terrain can be difficult and the weather can, even in the warmer months, become severe.
