Velocity Valley in Rotorua is New Zealand's first purpose-built extreme theme park with 5 adrenaline pumping activities. 4 of the activities won't be found anywhere else in New Zealand so this truly is a unique hair raising day out for all the family.

Choose from one of the following extreme activities or purchase more to try them all!


Agrojet - You won't find this jet sprint ride anywhere else in the world! Jump in buckle up and hold on for dear life as a professional driver takes you on a ride like no other! With a 450 horsepower V8 engine, you'll reach speeds of 100kph and feel 3G's of force as the boat twists and turns through its purpose-built obstacle course finishing with a 360-degree spin spectacle.




Freefall Xtreme - This is the only wind tunnel in the whole of New Zealand! Fly like a bird and feel weightless as you soar 2 metres in the air on a giant wind column. Feel the rush of Freefall Xtreme's Twin turbo, Detroit diesel V12 engine with wind speeds of up to 220kmph - you'll literally be blown away by this awesome ride!




Shweeb Racer- We guarantee you've never tried, seen or heard of anything like this before! Shweeb is a man-powered (with E-assist) aerodynamic racing pod suspended 5 metres in the air. Race your family and friends around the 600-metre track taking in the farmland scenery and experiencing extreme 60-degree angles on the corners.




Swoop - Remember the thrill of swinging on a rope when you were a kid? Well, this is the extreme pumped up version and the only one in New Zealand. You'll be strapped into a body harness face down and lifted 40 metres into the air. Then it's up to you to release the ripcord and plummet down to earth at 130kph. Sonny Bill Williams and the Nitro Circus Crew have all taken up the Swoop extreme challenge - Do you have what it takes?
