SkyWire, Zip-line attraction at Eden Project, Cornwall, England
SkyWire is a zip-line that stretches across the Eden Project site, allowing riders to glide over the biomes at high speed. The route passes over the botanical gardens and offers views of the landscape below from an aerial perspective.
This attraction was added in 2012 as part of an expansion of adventure activities at the site. Since then it has provided visitors with a new way to experience the grounds from above.
The name reflects the blend of adventure and environmental awareness that draws visitors to this place. People experience the flight over the botanical domes as both a thrill and an opportunity to observe the landscape from above in a way that ground-level visits cannot offer.
Visitors can enjoy this activity without needing to purchase separate Eden Project admission. It is best to wear secure footwear and check conditions before visiting, especially during poor weather.
During the ride, passengers gain a rare aerial view of one of the world's largest indoor rainforest structures. This angle of view makes it possible to see both the geodesic domes and the vegetation below in full perspective.
