About
Zipit runs a high-wire course in the trees at Lough Key, and it is the company's only park in Connacht. There are six circuits colour-coded by difficulty: green starts a metre off the ground, and the blue and red circuits go up to twenty metres, with ziplines across the forest clearings, cargo nets, swings and a BMX ride across a bridge. A session is three hours from the safety briefing to the finish. The minimum age is seven and there is no upper limit. You must pre-book online, and the course is inside the forest park, so the €6 park car-park charge applies if you drive.
