4. Ziplining At Neemrana
Though not one of the adventure places in Delhi, this thrilling activity is well worth the distance. Overlooking the royal Neemrana Fort, there are five zips that criss-cross each other and span from 90 mtrs to 400 mtrs and have varied characteristics; some are short and fast, whereas some overlook the grand Aravalli mountains.
Zip 1: To Qila Slammer (330m) – The first zip line soars high along the crest of the Aravalli Mountains, launching from an old look out point and flying towards an ancient hill fort, with spectacular views of the Rajasthan countryside.
Zip 2: Where Eagles Dare (400m) – This spans the entire side of the mountain overlooking Neemrana Fort-Palace. Fly like a vulture - or a god! - on Flying Fox's longest zip line.
Zip 3: Pussy Galore (90m) – Named after one of the Bond Girls, this zip may be short, but she's sweet and she's fast!
Zip 4: Goodbye Mr Bond (250m) – Continuing the Bond theme, these immortals words were uttered by the villain Goldfinger, but Bond survived to fight another day...
Zip 5: The Big B (175m) – Named in honour of Amitabh Bachchan who once zipped from this very spot into the Fort-Palace during the film Major Saheb.
