Jungle Surfing Review

The trip started at the Jungle Surfing lodge, where everyone gets to meet and fill out the necessary paperwork required for surfing through a rainforest canopy.

A crew member picks you up and drives you 10 minutes to the hilltop, where the crew kits you out with equipment.

Upon arrival, the crew warmly welcomes you, fits your harness and helmet, and you’re ready to jungle surf!

After a short walk, you reach the treeline start. A crew member hooks you up individually (or in pairs) to the lines.

The first line is thrilling! With no power, you’ll find a human-sized hamster wheel. Volunteers take turns spinning it, pushing the next group along the line to the first platform, creating a surreal moment!

From there, the crew takes you through a bit of an introduction on the amazing trees surrounding you, and you get a good view of the surroundings of the Daintree.

Through each passage and tree line, you can actually turn and observe the scenery, or spin your head down if you want to see how high you’re dangling up in the air! It’s a relaxed pace between the tree lines until you reach the second-to-last line. That one goes fast!

You can let yourself go backwards, and “free-slide” between you and the 26 metres below! The last line is the racing line where two people can race each other to the bottom of the trees.

From there, the crew takes you back to the base so you can remove all your equipment and head back to camp after a short drive.

This tour was long enough that you can get a good view of the trees, but short enough so you can head back to other activities (2h). DAmust-see if you are in the area!
