Biggest zip line in the country to open at Bluewater by February half term 2021

The biggest and fastest zip-line in the country is being built in Kent - with tickets to take on the challenge available from next week.

Hangloose Adventure has begun construction of its new outdoor activity complex at Bluewater, Greenhithe and is set to open in time for February half term next year.

Once open, Hangloose Bluewater will continue to add more experiences over the following 36 months including an outdoor skydive machine, Europe's largest swing and Europe's largest outdoor climbing wall.

Focusing on environmentally safe and eco-friendly fun, the climbing wall will make use of the cliffs surrounding Bluewater to create a range of activities for all fitness levels.

And thrill seekers keen to be amongst the first to take the plunge will be able to get their hands on an early-bird 30% discount by visiting the Hangloose Adventure stand in Bluewater from Saturday, October 24.

Senior centre director of Bluewater, Robert Goodman, said: "It is a fantastic development for Kent as well as the whole of the South East and will bring visitors from all over the country to experience the thrills of England's longest and fastest zip wire."

Hangloose Adventure's managing director, Brian Phelps, added: "We're thrilled to be bringing England's longest and fastest Zip Line to Bluewater.

"This will be one of the biggest and most exciting activities available anywhere in the country, super-fast and super-accessible and right on your doorstep."
