Wild Ropes at Taronga Zoo
Get your Tarzan on while seeing the Opera House from new heights.

Overview
If school camp flying fox left you scarred for life, it's time to jump on a Taronga-bound ferry and start the healing process. Strung high above the ground in the zoo's wild bush lands is Wild Ropes, an adrenalin-pumping rope course.
You'll climb, swing and soar from one challenge to the next, tiptoeing across bridges, scuttling through tunnels, scrambling up aerial rock walls and hanging out on a hoverboard. In between extraordinary feats, keep an eye out for koalas, kangaroos, emus and wallabies down below. And, when you're pausing to get your breath — and calm — back, check out the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House from whole new, dizzying angles.
All in all, there are four courses to conquer: two for scaredy cats and two for madmen. Once you've dominated the lot, you'll have smashed at least 40 obstacles. Not bad for a day at the zoo.
If you've got little ones (or you've been asked to babysit your nieces and nephews over the holidays), you can now bring them with you. The adventure park has just launched two children's courses, which are appropriate for rugrats as young as three.
To celebrate the launch of the new, mini courses — and just in time for the holidays — we're giving away a discount for all Monday to Friday bookings until December 16. Just use the code 'wildcp' at checkout to receive 20% off. (For the code to be valid, you'll need to make adult and junior bookings separately and only book up to four tickets.)
Wild Ropes is open between 9.45am and 3.45pm, seven days a week, 364 days a year. Tickets start at $37 for adults and $20 for children, and we recommend booking online in advance. Things can get busy.
