Zorbing in New Zealand
Hello, Ageless Adventurers!

Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or new to the world of adventure sports, zorbing offers a unique and unforgettable way to unleash your inner child. Let’s roll!
What is Zorbing?
For the uninitiated, zorbing involves rolling downhill inside a large, transparent, inflatable ball. Originating in New Zealand, this fun-filled activity has become a must-do for thrill-seekers visiting Rotorua. Imagine the rush of adrenaline as you tumble and spin, surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking views. It’s a rollercoaster experience without the tracks!
The ZORB Rotorua Experience
Located in the heart of New Zealand’s North Island, ZORB Rotorua is the ultimate destination for zorbing enthusiasts. Our team of Ageless Adventurers arrived eager and excited to dive into this one-of-a-kind experience. Here’s a glimpse into our day:
The Welcome
We were greeted by the friendly and professional staff at ZORB Rotorua, who ensured we felt safe and comfortable. After a brief orientation and safety briefing, we were ready to choose our zorbing adventure. ZORB Rotorua offers several tracks, each providing a different level of thrill:
Straight Track: Perfect for those new to zorbing or seeking a gentler ride.
Sidewinder Track: A zigzagging path that adds extra excitement and twists.
Big Air Track: For the adrenaline junkies, this track includes drops and jumps.
Mega Track: The longest and fastest track for the ultimate zorbing experience.
Getting Started
We opted for the Sidewinder Track to get a mix of excitement and scenic beauty. Climbing into the zorb was an adventure in itself, and once inside, we felt like kids in a giant hamster ball. With water added to the zorb, the experience became a slippery, sliding adventure – a refreshing twist that’s especially delightful on a warm day.
The Ride
As we were pushed off, the world outside became a blur of green and blue. The sensation of rolling and sliding combined with laughter made it a joyful, almost surreal experience. The twists and turns of the Sidewinder Track kept us on our toes (figuratively, of course), and the occasional splash of water added to the fun.
Why Zorbing is Perfect for All Ages
One of the best things about zorbing is that it’s suitable for all ages and fitness levels. Here’s why zorbing with ZORB Rotorua is an adventure anyone can enjoy:
Safety First: The zorbs are designed with safety in mind, and the professional staff ensures a secure experience.
Low Impact: The soft, cushioned environment inside the zorb means there’s minimal impact on your body.
Pure Fun: The sheer joy and laughter that come with zorbing make it an unforgettable experience.
Scenic Beauty: Rolling down a hill in Rotorua offers spectacular views, combining adventure with nature’s beauty.
