Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC, is an outdoor activity centre near Penryn offering award-winning adventures and they have now launched Cornwall's only multi-zip wire tour.

The Zip Wire Safari sees participants soar through a stunning historic granite quarry on a series of dual zip wires, building confidence with every ride. All the profits are donated to Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC's launching charity BF Adventure, to support their vital work with Cornwall's vulnerable children and young people.

Offering so much more than just a single adrenaline rush, the Zip Wire Safari allows participants to fly through the air to their heart's content, beginning with a series of practice zip wires and building up to three exhilarating zip rides across the adventure quarry.

The dual zip offers double the fun as participants face their fears and launch off the cliff edge, flying around together. Part way through, participants also experience the thrill of traversing along the quarry edge to navigate between zip wires, making this one of the most exciting zip wire experiences in the South West.

Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC is tucked away in a remote inland spot away from the crowds and a short distance between Helston, Falmouth, and Penryn, giving you fantastic views and a unique way to explore the fascinating quarrying heritage at height.

The Zip Wire Safari is suitable for children aged ten upwards through to thrill-seeking adults. Participants can book online via Zip Wire Safari | Zipwires Cornwall | Via Ferrata Cornwall.

As well as the zip wire there's the opportunity to enjoy delicious treats whilst taking in all the action with the Cornish Barista's dog-friendly Café which overlooks the quarry and zip wires.

There are also some free dog-friendly nature trails and a wild play area for children under ten, making Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC a venue for the whole family.

100% of profits from Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC and 10% of profits from The Cornish Barista's Cafe go to BF Adventure. This charity supports Cornwall's vulnerable children and young people wrestling with mental health problems, trauma, poverty, physical disabilities, and more.

Sharing the same 60-acre site as Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC, BF Adventure combines outdoor education with trauma-informed youth work to empower them to build confidence and life skills whilst having fun. The Zip Wire Safari will be available to these young people to enjoy.
