Abseiling Rotterdam

Abseiling from the Euromast: not for faint-hearted!

Looking down from the Euromast, makes you realize that this Rotterdam lookout tower is actually pretty tall! If you're searching for a serious thrill you can abseil or zip wire down the Euromast. With a height of 100 metres, this is Europe's highest abseil and that is serious stuff...

Say hello to your spectators...

The high speed Euromast elevators bring you to the lookout platform, where you receive a professional instruction to prepare for your spectacular descent. After this introduction you are allowed to abseil down all by yourself, using a rope and climbing harness. This vertical descent is so exciting and you must have real guts to make the first steps over the platform edge! During your descent, you come along the Euromast restaurant where all visitors will definitely notice you. This is also a good point to position your family for a fun photoshoot. So say cheese!

Zip wire from the Euromast in Rotterdam

Once a month you can also use the zip wire from the Euromast. Also this descent starts at the panorama platform at 100 meters height, but now you don't descend vertically, but you slide down diagonally. Via solid cables you zip wire down the Euromast within only 15 terrifying seconds, the same way as in a cable car. With a speed of 100 km/h the Euromast in Rotterdam is Europe's fastest zip wire!
