The dizzying high buildings of Dubai are an attraction in itself, but you can enjoy their extreme heights in another way than just watch. If you are looking for a huge portion of adrenaline, Dubai’s skyscrapers make it possible. One of the absolute highlights of Dubai is the Xline zipline: a 170-meter-high zipline that you can use to swoop down at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour. If you dare this, you will enjoy a lot adrenaline, but also a phenomenal view! The motto of this attraction makes clear what you can expect: ‘You do not have to be a superhero to descend from the world’s longest urban zipline, but at the end you will certainly feel like one.’
You can find the Xline Zipline at two different locations in Dubai. First there’s the Xline Zipline next to the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall. When you go down you will have a beautiful view at the Dubai fountains. The second Xline Zipline can be found at the Dubai Marina, where you can enjoy the view at the Marina with the yachts and skyscrapers. You will end your journey at the Dubai Marina Mall. Both ziplines offer you a unique experience!
The Xline Zipline offers the possibility to go down together, each on one zipline. Do you dare to go down together with your partner, boyfriend / girlfriend or kid? The kilometer long ziplines are next to each other so you can see who reaches the ground first. You will go from 0 to 60 kilometers per hour within 2.5 seconds and finally reach a speed of 80 kilometers per hour.
The zipline supports people with a weight of up to 100 kilos and kids of at least 12 years old who are 1.30 meters and taller. You need to have an overall good physical condition and people with fragile health, dangerous illness or heart problems should not use the zipline. Before your flight, the material is thoroughly inspected and you are weighed to ensure that the descent will be safe.
All the adrenaline probably makes you scream during your flight down and maybe you won’t have time to enjoy the great views while going down. Do not worry, because you can relive your flight as often as you want. During your flight a camera attached to your wrist will record your descent. Once you are safely on the ground, you will receive your own video!
