CLOTHING: Athletic wear you're comfortable moving in. Skirts and dresses are not suitable for most activities. Avoid loose or dangling clothing.

What’s Involved in The Bag Jump?

The bag jump is an experience you won’t forget. Climb to the top of one (or all!) of the towers varying in height before your jump. You begin with the lowest jump before working your way through each platform increasing in height each time. The platforms heights include 3m, 4m, 5m and 6m – not everyone reaches the largest platform, do you dare try it?

Once you’ve reached the platform, the instructor will guide you on how to jump. From here, it’s down to you! Without any harness or gears, you take the leap to land safely onto the giant inflatable bag below.

The bag jump is for everyone ready to test their nerve and enjoy a free-falling experience. The bag jump at our London outdoor activity centre isn’t for the faint-hearted, but gives you the ultimate adrenaline rush!
