As featured on Channel 5's Gadget Show.

Check out the zipwire, soar 50m above a flooded quarry - over 490metres long - on twin-cabled zipwire .

• It's the second longest zipwire in the UK (the new one at the Eden Project is 600 metres)
• It's the second fastest zipwire in the UK, now the Eden Project are claiming 60mph
• It's the highest zipwire in the UK.

Reach speeds of up to 40mph. The youngest that's done it so far has been 5 and the oldest 87 - so there's little excuse there to wimp out!

All zipwire users are met at the bottom by trained helpers, to ensure you have a safe landing and unhook yourself properly.

No booking required for the zipwire.

Now, before you hide the details of this fabulous day out from your family, look again - because it's not all about adrenalin and danger at the Quarry.  There are plenty of other activities too.  Why not:

• Check out the stunning views of Bodmin Moor
  
• Watch the cliff jumpers from a free spectator platform
• Enjoy a picnic in the picnic area overlooking the lake

There's free entry and free parking.  You pay only for the activities you're interested in doing.  So, if you're a wimp, offer to cut the sandwiches and hold the coats!  There's no need for the others to go without, or for you to feel you have to do the scary stuff.

Fancy having a go at piloting a single-seat hovercraft?  These are great fun - and manageable by everybody.

Adrenalin Quarry's friendly instructors will soon have you flying along.  Once you've mastered the skills in the training field, you're then let loose on the water - go flying at full throttle under towering cliffs.

Hovercrafts will need to be booked in advance.

Everything at Adrenalin Quarry's perfectly safe. Although you get the adrenalin buzz, safety is key and they go over the top about safety so you're not really in any danger at all.

Only state-of-the-art equipment is used. All the rides are supervised by expertly trained instructors, who are there to reassure you and help you.

On the zipwire the instructors aren't just there to make sure you're properly harnessed and launch with grace, but they're also waiting at the bottom to catch you and unhook you!

• Zip weight limits: minimum 25Kg, maximum 115Kg
