Zip World Tower Colliery, Phoenix

Zip World Tower – High-Flying Adventure in South Wales

Located in the dramatic Rhigos mountain range, Zip World Tower is South Wales’ premier adventure hub and the first Zip World site to open in this region. Set on the historic site of Tower Colliery, this bold attraction breathes new life into a much-loved landmark, combining industrial heritage with adrenaline-fuelled fun.

Phoenix is the headline attraction – the world’s fastest seated zip line. With four parallel lines across two zip zones, it’s a thrilling ride with breathtaking views across the Welsh countryside. For younger visitors or those building up to the big one, Tower Flyer offers a gentler zip experience with three mini zip zones and dual lines for side-by-side fun.

For those who prefer climbing to flying, the Tower Climber is the UK’s biggest adventure obstacle course of its kind – a high-level challenge packed with physical fun.

After the adventure, head to the Adventure Terminal to relax and refuel. The on-site café, Cegin Glo, serves up hearty meals and snacks in a setting that nods to the site’s coal mining past, blending modern comfort with rustic charm.

Zip World Tower is a must-visit destination for thrill-seekers and families alike, set against the backdrop of some of the most stunning scenery in South Wales.
