About
Description
Auckland's Sky Tower, at 192 metres tall, is the tallest tower in the southern hemisphere offering spectacular views of Auckland city and the sparkling harbour below. Located at the top are SkyJump and SkyWalk, two of New Zealand's most thrilling and exhilirating unique tourists attractions and 'must do' Auckland experiences. Choose one or do them both!
SkyJump
Leap off Auckland’s famous Sky Tower – 192 metres straight down!
SkyJump can be described as Base Jumping, while attached to a wire – just like a movie stuntman! You’ll fall very fast (approximately 85kph) for around 11 seconds, and then come to a very smooth landing in the Sky City plaza below.
Your friends and family are welcome to come along to watch you as you complete your SkyJump. We will take them out to the landing platform (for no charge) where we can tell them exactly when you will be jumping. This is the best viewing spot.
SkyWalk
Walk the 1.2 metre-wide walkway around Auckland’s famous Sky Tower – 192 metres above the ground, no handrails and nothing but air on either side of you! During your SkyWalk experience, you'll traverse 360 degrees around the spectacular Auckland Sky Tower, stopping at several points to have your photo taken, admire the view and have a go at hanging over the edge!. You will also learn a little about Auckland history and landmarks and hear the amazing story of the Auckland Sky Tower’s construction.
The only physical requirement for SkyWalk is the ability to reliably walk around the pergola. SkyWalk, Auckland, has created a way for people with some physical limitations to participate in a SkyWalk by using a Hand Gliding harness, where you can simply harness in and 'glide' around.
