ZORB is an adventure activity in which 1, 2 or 3 people are stuffed into a large transparent inflatable ball which is then pushed down a hill, water is then added (cool in the summer and warm in the winter) to create a crazy slide of slippery, screaming goodness.

Invented by the owners of ZORB, Rotorua remains the only location in New Zealand to experience this iconic activity we offer the longest and craziest rides in the world! With three different tracks and two ride styles, ZORB Rotorua offers a range of experiences for your bi-spherical enjoyment:

Straight Track – 250m: Race your mum, your mates or your arch-enemy down the 250m long straight tracks for maximum speed and bragging rights (loser buys lunch).

Sidewinder Track- 350m: 6 massive corners combined with the longest zig -zag track in the land to blow your mind like a cross between a roller-coaster and a waterfall.

Big Air Track – 300m: True to its name – Big Air will have you holding on tight as you fly down three epic drops, swing around thrilling bends and sweeping corners.
