Bungee Jumping in Australia

bungee jumping in australia

Are you currently searching for information about Cairns, and feeling like nine out of ten guides are only talking about the Great Barrier Reef? The activities available might all seem very similar. So, are there any lesser-known and exciting activities to try in Cairns? Bungee jumping is an experience that many people have heard of, but few have tried. And the good news is you can do it in Cairns!

During the process of defying gravity, you constantly accelerate until the very last second when you are suddenly pulled back by the rope, giving you a sense of “redemption.” However, the feeling doesn’t end there as you will continue to tumble in the air several times until you exhaust all your energy.

Where can I do Bungee Jumping in Australia?

The AJ Hackett Bungy Cairns is located near the Kuranda Tropical Rainforest (Kuranda) northwest of Cairns (exact location: McGregor Road, Smithfield QLD 4878). You can reach there in less than an hour by car. Generally, purchasing relevant bungee jumping products will provide shuttle services within Cairns.

What is the Bungee Jumping experience like?

Compared to regular bungee jumping, there are more exciting ways to play at the AJ Hackett Bungy Cairns, which is the world-renowned extreme sports expert AJ Hackett’s bungee jumping base in Cairns. This base is the only bungee jumping site in Australia with a history of 21 years, offering up to 16 different types of bungee jumping, such as biking while bungee jumping!

Climbing 166 stairs to the top, you will reach Cairns’ highest viewing platform, which will be one of the biggest thrills of your life. From the top of the 50-meter tower, you can enjoy the scenic view of the Northern Beaches and even see the Great Barrier Reef!

Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced adrenaline seeker, we can definitely take you out of your comfort zone. Nothing reminds you that you’re alive more than an adrenaline rush!
