Scenic zipline in Majella: single flight

The Majella National Park is a mountain park overlooking the sea. What better way to admire it than from above, flying on the first zipline in Abruzzo?

The Majella zip line is a steel cable that traverses Pacentro, one of Italy's most beautiful villages, offering spectacular views of the Morrone Mountains.

You will wear a harness and let yourself be carried by the pulley along the steel cable where you will reach speeds of up to 80 km/h. Get ready for an adrenalin rush and a thrilling flight!

What we will do

The zipline departure base is located in Pacentro (AQ) at 778 metres. To reach the launching platform, a shuttle service is available that will take you to the starting station in 5 minutes.

Once the harness has been donned, one of the technicians will give a safety briefing. When the time comes, another technician will unhook us from the base and begin our flight. Discovering ourselves suspended in the void, we will experience a wonderful adrenalin rush that we will find hard to forget.

The length of the cable connecting the departure station with the arrival station is 992 metres and crosses the valley bordering Pacentro. On either side we will be able to admire the Monti del Morrone, a protected nature reserve. The maximum speed we will reach will be 80 km/h: pure fun guaranteed.

The duration of the flight is about 1 minute, but we will feel such intense emotion that it will seem like much more time has passed since the launch. At the arrival station, which is located at 665 metres, a staff member will unhook us from the pulley.

A few steps from the landing point we will also find our cars. The total duration of the activity is about 30 minutes.
