AN outdoor activity centre near Penryn has launched Cornwall's only multi-zip wire tour.

Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC's Zip Wire Safari sees participants soar through a stunning historic granite quarry on a series of dual zip wires, building confidence with every ride.

All the profits are donated to Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC’s launching charity BF Adventure, to support their vital work with Cornwall’s vulnerable children and young people.

The Zip Wire Safari allows participants to fly through the air to their heart’s content, beginning with a series of practice zip wires and building up to three zip rides across the adventure quarry.

Partway through, participants also experience traversing along the quarry edge to navigate between zip wires.

Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC is tucked away in a remote inland spot away from the crowds and a short distance between Helston, Falmouth and Penryn, guaranteeing fantastic views and a unique way to explore the fascinating quarrying heritage at height.

Before flying over the quarry, fully qualified Instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing and teach the skills to safely use a zip wire in the training area.

Once participants are confident, they are able to enjoy taking flight over the quarry, knowing that they are securely clipped in to the safety cable throughout the entire adventure.

This charity supports Cornwall’s vulnerable children and young people wrestling with mental health problems, trauma, poverty, physical disabilities and more.

Sharing the same 60-acre site as Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC, BF Adventure combines outdoor education with trauma informed youth work to empower them to build confidence and life skills whilst having fun.

The Zip Wire Safari will be available to these young people to enjoy.
