The Dolomites are one of those rare places where the whole family can share an adventure that feels truly extraordinary. Imagine soaring above UNESCO-listed peaks, gliding over pine forests and alpine meadows, with your children grinning from ear to ear. That is exactly what our zipline at Adrenaline Adventures in San Vigilio di Marebbe delivers.
Why the Dolomites Are Perfect for Families
San Vigilio di Marebbe is a naturally family-friendly village. Quiet, green, surrounded by gentle hiking trails and playgrounds, it has been welcoming families for generations. Our zipline experience fits right into this setting — an activity that brings parents and children together for a shared rush of adrenaline.
No athletic ability required. No previous experience needed. Just a willingness to have fun together.
Age and Weight Requirements
The zipline is open to children with no strict minimum age, but there is a key weight requirement:
- Minimum weight: 35 kg (between 35 and 40 kg this is assessed at check-in, and a tandem flight with an instructor may be arranged)
- Maximum weight: 130 kg
- Supervision: minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian
No previous experience is required. Children who meet the weight requirement can participate in complete safety.
What should kids expect? Children love the preparation phase — putting on the harness and helmet makes them feel like real explorers. The flight itself is smooth and controlled: no sudden jerks, no unexpected drops.
Safety First — Always
As parents ourselves, we understand that safety is your number one concern. It is ours too.
