Zip Wire Challenge

There are easier ways to spend a Bank Holiday Monday.

But very few of them involve flying through the air at alarming speed for a very good cause.

Join us on Monday 25 May for a sponsored Phoenix Zip Challenge at Zip World Tower Colliery, Aberdare — a former mining site turned adventure destination, with big skies, dramatic views, and just enough danger to make the picnic afterwards feel especially well earned.

Sponsor our Zip Wire team to take on the Phoenix - this is Zip World Tower’s headline zip-line experience: the world’s fastest seated zip line, with riders reaching speeds of up to 70mph. It runs on four parallel lines across two zip zones, so you won’t be disappearing nobly into the distance on your own — there’s every chance someone will be hurtling beside you, looking just as composed as you are. Or not.

Every pound raised helps Skanda Vale Hospice continue offering unhurried, compassionate care to people and families living with life-limiting illness.
