Jebel Jais Zipline: Worlds Longest Zipline Experience
Plan your Jebel Jais zipline day with 2026 booking steps, age and weight limits, what to expect on the ride, and a full itinerary from Dubai or Ras Al Khaimah.
Why Jebel Jais Zipline Stands Out
The Jebel Jais zipline runs 2.83 km across the Hajar Mountains in Ras Al Khaimah and holds the Guinness record for the world’s longest zipline. Riders reach speeds up to 150 km/h while suspended 1680 m above sea level. The line is open year-round, though mornings stay cooler between December and March.
Age, Weight and Health Rules
Participants must be 12 years or older. Minimum weight is 35 kg and maximum is 120 kg. Pregnant guests and anyone with recent surgery, heart conditions or uncontrolled high blood pressure are not permitted. Bring photo ID; staff check weight on site with calibrated scales.
How to Book and Current 2026 Prices
Book directly through the official Jebel Jais website or approved RAK tourism operators. Standard adult tickets cost AED 695 and include transport from the base to the launch platform. Add AED 120 for a GoPro video and AED 45 for a printed photo. Same-day slots often sell out on weekends, so reserve at least 48 hours ahead. Cancellations made more than 24 hours before the slot receive a full refund.
What the Experience Feels Like
After a 25-minute 4x4 ride up the mountain you reach the launch deck. Staff fit you with a full-body harness and helmet, then clip you to the dual-cable system. The descent lasts 90 to 120 seconds. You fly past rocky ridges and can see Oman’s mountains on clear days. At the landing platform, staff unclip you and offer water before the return shuttle.
