畏高的我在塔斯曼尼亞玩鋼索飛行 Zipline in Tasmania

We drove from Launceston to Hollybank Treetops Adventure in Underwood and arrived in about 25mins.
從朗塞斯頓開車約25分鐘,便可到達Underwood的Hollybank Treetops Adventure。

Zipline needed to be pre-booked.  We, 6 pax, have booked the morning section which started at 10am.  The fee is AUD125 per person.
鋼索飛行需提前預訂。 我們6人預訂了早上10點開始的時段,費用每人125美元。There are 7 sections for zipline.  It lasted for about 3hours.
那裡的鋼索飛行共有7段,全程需約3小時。

One of our guides 其中一位調皮導師
Two guides first briefed us on the adventure and then helped us to fit into equipment.  Then, they led us a short training and practice before a short 10-min walk to the starting point of the zipline tour.  
兩位導師首先為我們講解鋼索飛行要注意的事項,然後幫助我們穿上設備。接著,他們帶領作地面的訓練,然後帶領我們步行約10分鐘前往鋼索飛行的起點。

Photo taking in the middle of zipline 在鋼索中段拍照

After warming-up in the initial few sections which were short and easy, we tried to post for photo-taking in the middle. 最初的幾段都較短及容易,這樣熱身過後,我們還在一段鋼索的中間停留拍照。


200m Zipline over Pipers River 河流上的200米鋼索


The sections then got longer to 100m and 200m. The 100m section passed through the highest point of the tour, 50m high.   The 200m section went through the top of a Pipers River.  The last section was a very short one at which the guides taught us to try the free falling to complete the tour.

之後的部分則較長 -- 100米和200米。 100米的一段會滑過全程的最高點,高50米。 200米的那段在河流(Pipers River)的上空滑過。最後一節非常短,導師在這一段教導我們嘗試free fall來完成這次旅程 。


After we landed on each platform between each zipline sections, the guides would share with us knowledge of the forest, the ecosystem and how the zipline infrastructures were built with the best preservation of the forest.
每當我們降落在每段鋼索之間的平台時,導師還會與我們分享森林知識,生態系統以及如何以最能保護森林的方法去建立這鋼索飛行的設施。









As we were recommended to keep belongings in locker to avoid anythings falling down to forest when flying on zipline, we did not bring any smart phone or camera with us.  However, the guides would help to take photos of us during the tour and saved them in USB for us to keep the happy memories.
因為我們都把物品放在儲物櫃內,以避免在鋼索飛行時有任何東西任何掉落到森林裡,我們沒有帶任何智能手機或相機隨身。 然而,導師在過程中都為我們拍攝照片,並將其保存在USB中給我們,為今次愉快旅程作紀念。

Remarks 備註:
1. There is a snack bar at Hollybank, for a munch of cookies/muffins/sandwiches and a cup of coffee.   Hollybank有一個小食部,供應曲奇/鬆餅/三明治和咖啡等。
2. There are other activities that fill-up a whole day at Hollybank, eg. Segway, Tree Ropes, etc.  Hollybank還有提供其他活動,如 賽格威(Segway)、樹上繩網等,可玩一整天。
