    Queenstown

    February 2, 2018 in New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    So Queenstown being the world capital for extreme sports, today I joined the hype with a Via Ferrata. Here it was more going up, where most European Via Ferratas are primarily traversing.
    We were very lucky, our guide, called pirate, only had to drag Maggie and I along. He quickly noticed that we were quite capable and let us do our own thing. So amazing.
    After the Via Ferrata, Maggie and I were joined by Niclas and we went Zip lining. There were 6 lines and one of them was the steepest tree-to-tree zip line with a 100 meter drop over 300 meters. We were challenged to go upside down, or do a trust fall or sing on the 3 of the first 4 lines.
    Following the zip lining we went to the Shotover canyon where Maggie was joined by, Michael, Andi, Semia, Nina, and Jane and they all did the canyon swing, a 60 meter free-fall before swinging across the canyon.
