The Tibradden course includes over 100 individual challenges such as cargo nets, balancing beams, Tarzan swings, wobbly bridges, climbing walls and zip lines that crisscross the trees.
Visitors are harnessed and trained by ERCA-certified instructors and there's a belay system that keeps participants clipped in at all times.
Thrill-seekers travel 2.8km at speeds of up to 150kph on the longest zipline in the world, on top of the Jebel Jais mountain
Participants can then spend up to three hours navigating the course at their own pace, allowing plenty of time to complete multiple circuits.
Along the way, adventurers take in the stunning natural scenery, including ancient pine trees, moss-covered boulders and wildlife sightings.
The Tibradden site is open every day throughout the busy summer months of June, July, and August, with bookings available for individuals, families and groups of seven.
What's more, the park is available for birthday parties, youth and sports club outings, school tours and team-building events.
NEW ZIP TRAIL
And last year a new ziplining experience called the Zip Trail launched at the Tibradden Wood course.
This standalone trail consists of 12 consecutive zip lines that stretch over 500 metres in total, sending participants gliding between the trees at up to 10 metres above ground.
The Zip Trail is open to anyone aged 12 and up and takes 30–40 minutes to complete.
On site, guests will find a log cabin shop selling hot and cold drinks, snacks like crisps and
There is a host of other amenities at the sites – with playgrounds and even a deer enclosure.
Parking is free and available at each location, and the ziplining experience is suitable for ages 7 plus.
You can choose from a wide range of ticket options at www.zipit.ie to have the perfect summer day out.
However, June bookings are known to fill up fast, so it's advised to pre-book to avoid disappointment.

British Conservative Party leader says BBC 'should not show' Kneecap at Glastonbury
British Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch has said she thinks the BBC "should not be showing" Kneecap's performance at Glastonbury Festival next week. In a social media post on X, which was accompanied by an article from The Times that claimed the BBC had not banned the group, Ms Badenoch wrote: "The BBC should not be showing Kneecap propaganda. "One Kneecap band member is currently on bail, charged under the Terrorism Act. "As a publicly funded platform, the BBC should not be rewarding extremism." On Wednesday, Mr Ó hAnnaidh was accompanied to Westminster Magistrates' Court by his two other band members, JJ Ó Dochartaigh, whose stage name is DJ Próvaí, and Naoise Ó Cairealláin, whose stage name is Móglaí Bap. Mr Ó hAnnaidh is alleged to have displayed a flag in support of Hezbollah at a gig at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town in north London on 21 November last year. He was released on unconditional bail until his next hearing at the same court on 20 August. Following the hearing, the rapper said: "For anybody going to Glastonbury, you can see us there at 4pm on the Saturday. "If you can't be there we'll be on the BBC, if anybody watches the BBC. We'll be at Wembley in September." In November, Kneecap won its discrimination case over a decision made by Ms Badenoch to refuse them funding. A BBC spokesperson said: "As the broadcast partner, the BBC will be bringing audiences extensive music coverage from Glastonbury, with artists booked by the festival organisers. "Whilst the BBC doesn't ban artists, our plans will ensure that our programming will meet our editorial guidelines. Decisions about our output will be made in the lead up to the festival." During their sold-out gig at Fairview Park in Dublin on Thursday, DJ Próvaí thanked fans who turned out to support them during their bandmate's court case. Formed in 2017, the Belfast trio are known for their provocative lyrics in both Irish and English. Their best-known tracks include Get Your Brits Out, Better Way To Live, featuring Grian Chatten from Fontaines DC, and 3Cag.
