Extreme bungee jumping
There are bungee jumping opportunities on both the North and South Islands.
On the North Island, jumpers can jump a water touch bungee jump in the Taupo area in the Waikato River Valley, just upstream from the Huka falls. Jumpers jump into aqua-colored waters and actually touch the water at its lowest point.
Near Queenstown are numerous bungee jumping sites, including the Kawarau Bridge 43 meter jump (picture), the Nevis Highwire jump which boasts a 134 meter jump toward the pristine waters of a rushing river and the Ledge, an urban bungee jumping site within the confines of Queensland.
Auckland has its own sites, such as jumping off the Harbor Bridge into the nearby river.
