Overview
Challenge yourself and get ready for a truly unique and exhilarating experience on Velocity at Zip World.
Kitted out with all the necessary gear, your adventure begins with the ''Little Zip'' wire. This shorter zip wire provides you with a taste of what's to come. Transported in style in red army trucks up the mountain, you'll wait in an undercover area, before the unforgettable ride on the main Velocity line begins.
Once strapped in, you’ll be sent on the world’s fastest and the UK’s longest zip line, flying across the quarry lake to the bottom. Reaching speeds of up to and above 100mph, soak up breath-taking views of Penrhyn quarry and North Wales. This promises to be an unforgettable ride.

Better Than I expected
Was looking forward to this and it didn't disappoint, considering it was quite busy staff do an excellent job, especially when it came to calming my daughter who was nervous. The whole thing was a good experience from the mini zip wire to the 15 minute trundle up the mountain in the old truck.

Amazing day
What an amazing experience the velocity 2 zip line was, i would definitely recommend to everyone! We had a fab day at zip world, thereās plenty food and drink options for people just coming to watch and plenty seating. I do think the video of the drop should be included in the price of the experience as it is a lot of money. But thoroughly enjoyed :-)

The Zip World people have created a truly exhilarating experience. All staff in the state-of-the-art centre near Bethesda are professional and friendly. They put safety and customer experience at the top of their to-do list. Knowing that this is the case calms anyone who may be slightly nervous. Sliding rapidly over the quarry and the aquamarine lake is both exciting and peaceful. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone who wants a truly enjoyable thrill.

An amazing Zipline
Absolutely loved this. You go on a small Zipline to start off with, to get you ready for the main event. Then youāre taken up by one of the Quarry trucks to the launch site. Itās such an adrenaline rush going over the Quarry when you di the Zipline. Would highly recommend this to anyone. You can also buy a video package for Ā£18 and you can keep your phone in the pouch to get some good photos before and after Ziplining!!

Spectacular day!
My lovely family bought me this experience for my 70th birthday. I'm physically disabled, so wondered exactly how of course. I need not have worried. The staff were second to none, and made sure I had no worries about getting to the trio zipline! I cannot pressure the staff enough, from reception to cafe, to those taking care of our equipment and safety! So welcoming, and nothing was too much trouble! A day to remember! Thank you to all who made my day so special!

Velocity...
Experience bought for us by family. Velocity, Zipline in North Wales. From start to finish what an amazing experience. Easy to find, ample parking, great welcome. The whole thing flowed so well. Great interaction with staff. Beautiful setting. The small trial zipline was a great introduction of what was to come. Journey up the quarry in the trucks was great. Safety procedures were thorough and reassuring. Velocity run was amazing, great experience. Thoroughly enjoyed.

What a ride!!
Absolutely excellent, juts a shame it is 2 hours from where we live. Loved every minute of it. The food in the restaurant was excellent and both that and the drinks were well priced. The instructors were very informative and polite, and excellent at strapping us all in. One little things that was mentioned to me by my wife, it would be a help if, whilst waiting that a bell or a light went off when the riders were about to go? Other than that, fantastic, thank you so much

Wow
This was a very well organised experience. Only one thing that I think would be a good Idea would be to give the option of the head cam filming forwards and backwards. When showing friends they all said they wanted to see what I experienced and not my ugly mug, ouch! But I also think it would be good as it's over so quick it would be good to review it. But overall a great day.

Great Experience
Really enjoyed the experience from start to finish! You get a smaller preparation zipline before heading up the quarry to do the real deal zipline! Amazing. We were fortunate it was a lovely sunny clear day. The spectator area is great my partner stayed and watched takes approx 1.30hrs. Thanks to all the team yesterday at zipworld, adrenaline sure does pump!

Most fantastical experience
I booked velocity for my daughterās 21st birthday. Zip world facilities were great, I cannot fault a thing. The staff were extremely efficient which made me feel very relaxed. A man was nervous whilst being strapped in on the bench. The staff kept saying breathe for me until he was happy to continue and then he screamed with glee.The whole process worked like a very well oiled machine - impressive! Both zip wires were amazingly thrilling, views absolutely amazing and would recommend to anyone.

An adventure that Iāve wanted to tick off the list for many a year!! A very positive experience from the reception area right through to the landing. Totally safe in every aspect plus a supportive, experienced and relaxed staff team that allayed any element of anxiety or nervousness. A great team building experience with a huge sense of achievement and pride at the end.
