Must-do Wildwire Wanaka - Thank you so much, Wildwire, for this amazing adventure. Special thanks to Conner, who assisted my husband and son. He was very friendly and made the climbing experience enjoyable for them. It was a great experience and definitely a must-do activity; very safe.

Fantastic afternoon - thoroughly enjoyable experience! - The level 2 waterfall climb was fantastic. Connor was a brilliant guide - very helpful and safety conscious (he also took some great photos of us!). It was reasonably challenging with some more technical sections but we made it through with his guidance! :-). We were definitely exhausted by the end but elated with a great sense of personal achievement in completing something we never thought either of us would do. Thoroughly recommend it. Thanks again Connor! :-)

Awesome Adventure at Wildwire! - Had a fantastic outing at Wildwire! I had the chance to work with two awesome guides; Sarah took great care of me on the climb, and Allison made sure I got safely back to ground level. They were both genuinely engaged, quick to applaud success and just as quick to offer support if needed, I felt safe and secure at all times. The course was exciting with just enough challenge; being so close to the waterfall was a very cool aspect. I chose Level 2 and I was not disappointed...it was perfect! Definitely recommend this adventure.

Unforgettable experience!! - What an amazing experience! It was the perfect way to end my week exploring the South Island. We were lucky to have a small group of myself and a couple who were great fun. It was my first time doing via ferrata and I loved it! We didn’t want to rush the climb so kept taking breaks to enjoy the view and we took a lot of photos too. Thank you team Wildwire

Great fun and great views - Our family of four (18 and 24 year old kids) had a fabulous time. We all felt very safe but there was enough of a thrill too, and the views were incredible (admittedly none of us are fearful of heights!).

Wildwire Wanaka L2 climb - Absolute highlight of our trip. Such an epic day climbing with spectacular views. Only regret is that we didn't upgrade to level 3 and get dumped on by the waterfall! Next time, though. Our guide, Lorna was fantastic. All staff were friendly, supportive and ensured we all knew how to safely climb before jumping on the rungs. Awesome experience. Thanks again Lorna 😊 Annie

Lord of the Rungs - Level 3 good but overpriced - I have just done the Lord of the Rungs - Level 3. I really enjoyed the team, the great view, the lunch, and the unique experience of climbing under a waterfall. However, I found the experience overpriced at $649 : The difficulty level was really manageable and not as challenging as advertised, especially for people who have done Via Ferrata / Climbing once. The high price might be justified by the helicopter ride, but the flight was extremely brief, lasting only a few seconds. They often do a short canyon tour but that day was just a direct landing. Overall, I’m feeling a bit disappointed given the very high cost.
