What is zorbing you may ask – well it certainly is not for the faint hearted! Zorbing originated in New Zealand and is basically people in a PVC ball going down a hill at speeds of up to 30 mph. Why would one want to do this you may ask? Why not?
Hydro zorbing is when the ball is filled with 10 gallons of water and up to 3 riders can float unharnessed in the ball as the balls rolls down the hill. Harnessed zorbing is when the 2 riders are harnessed in a ball (strapped by their shoulders, hips and feet) while the ball rolls down the hill.
There is only one zorbing provider in Northern Ireland. They are Jungle NI situated in Moneymore, Londonderry and offer this incredibly thrilling ride.
There are other providers in the UK if you do not make it inland to Jungle NI.
