The World's Highest Bungy: Jump, Float Back, Walk Out

You arrive an hour early for safety briefing and gear check, then walk the platform to the jump point 216 meters above the gorge. The pendulum bungy gives you a smooth arc instead of a snap, followed by a winch recovery that lifts you back to the bridge. You walk out across the 216-meter SkyWalk to finish, and leave with a jump certificate. The whole experience takes a few hours and operates in all weather except severe storms.

The Experience

You're already suited up and standing on the platform 216 meters above the Storms River Gorge. The bridge beneath you is Africa's highest, and the jump platform juts out over nothing but air and the sound of water far below. Before you step off, the crew runs through the safety briefing — it's thorough, methodical, the kind of thing that actually settles your nerves because you can see they've done this thousands of times. The Bloukrans bungy uses pendulum technology, which means instead of the old snap-and-bounce, you'll swing in a smooth arc. It's the difference between a jolt and a dance.

The jump itself takes maybe three seconds of freefall before the cord catches. Then you're swinging — not dropping anymore, but moving through space in a way that feels almost controlled, almost graceful. Your stomach doesn't stay behind; your whole body is part of the motion. After the swing settles, a winch brings you back up to the platform. No scrambling, no climbing. You're lifted smoothly back to solid ground, and then you walk the 216-meter SkyWalk across the bridge to finish. That walk is stranger than the jump in some ways — your legs feel light, the views open up on both sides, and you're moving at your own pace for the first time since you arrived.

The whole experience takes a few hours from arrival to departure. You need to show up an hour before your booked jump time for the safety briefing and gear check. The operation runs in all weather except gale-force winds or thunderstorms, so rain alone won't stop you. Wear clothes you can move in — no skirts — and shoes that grip the walkway. The weight limit is 150 kilograms, and if you have any recent injuries to your spine, shoulders or knees, or if you're pregnant or have cardiovascular concerns, this isn't the jump for you. Everyone else, regardless of fitness level, can do it.

You'll get a jump certificate at the end, proof that you did the thing. The views from the bridge are worth the trip on their own — the gorge drops away in layers of green and rock — but the jump is what you came for, and it's the one thing you'll think about for months afterward.

What’s included

Your experience includes the safety briefing, the bungy jump with pendulum technology, the winch recovery ride back to the platform, and the 216-meter SkyWalk return across Bloukrans Bridge. You'll also receive a jump certificate to take home.
