Fell the free fall bungee jumping at Bloukrans Bridge

If you are travelling along the Garden Route and looking for the ultimate adrenaline rush, you really must not miss bungee jumping at Bloukrans Bridge in Tsitsikamma National Park. At 216 metres high, it is the highest commercial bungee jump bridge in the world – an experience I would happily repeat every time.

Even the way to the jump platform is an adventure in itself: you start with a zipline ride over the gorge, accompanied by high-energy music and a crew who get you in the mood with good vibes and dancing. Once you arrive at the top, you are rewarded with a breathtaking view over the Bloukrans River and the surrounding forests – a moment that will certainly stay with you.

The jump itself is a free fall into nothingness that makes you feel as if you are flying. Thanks to state-of-the-art pendulum bungee technology, the jump is especially smooth and safe. After the jump you are pulled back up to the bridge and can walk back along a suspended walkway beneath the road – one last thrill with spectacular views. The crew take photos of you and your jump so the experience is captured for you to keep.

For me, bungee jumping at Bloukrans Bridge is an action-packed highlight, an unforgettable experience full of adrenaline, music and nature.
