Our story

Building the next
big thrill.

Ziplord Consultancy is passionate about crafting extraordinary outdoor experiences that fuse the thrill of adventure with the beauty of the natural world.

We specialise in designing and constructing adventure parks, zipline towers, rope courses and other innovative attractions that challenge expectations while working naturally with their surroundings.

With over a decade of experience in adventure development, our work combines practical engineering, creative thinking, safety and an understanding of what makes an attraction commercially compelling.

From one signature attraction to an entire adventure destination, we work with clients to transform ideas and landscapes into places people want to experience again and again.

Attractions are considered as part of an overall visitor journey rather than as isolated pieces of equipment.
