Adventure Activities

Soar high above Halifax, Nova Scotia’s seaside city, in a helicopter for a bird’s eye view of the hustle and bustle of the busy harbour, explore challenging aerial rope courses in the trees and fly through the air on a zipline. Challenge your sense of adventure even further during a hot air balloon ride or skydiving lesson.
