What to expect from your experience
So what’s involved in the experience? Here we’ll talk you through each step of the process for ultimate peace-of-mind, and you’ll see just how accessible this adventure really is!
The first step of any Zip World adventure; arrive half an hour before your adventure start-time to check-in at reception and settle in.
Once checked in, you’ll meet your guide, who will lead you through the entire experience. Your guide will help you get kitted into a harness and teach you how to use the safety system. Don’t worry, this is super simple, and you’ll be ready to go in a flash!
With your guide and group, you’ll begin to ascend the 200+ steps up the bespoke walkway on the west side of the stadium roof, as you learn titbits of information about the space. This will take you to the pinnacle, where you will experience the stadium and see views of South Wales from stunning heights.
You’ll first reach the Arch, which is the backbone of the Principality Stadium! You’ll complete a very gentle, sloped climb to reach the Arch. Next, you’ll walk across to the Spire, which will take you to 35m above the famous River Taff.
You’ll then spend a bit of time enjoying views of Cardiff, the Brecon Beacons and the Welsh coastline beyond on the main viewing platform, as well as soaking up the view of the 75,000 seat stadium from above (please note we cannot guarantee that the roof will be open during your experience). Following this, head down the stadium Edge, where you will return to ground level to conclude the experience.
Once you’ve finished, you will either be de-kitted, or embark on another Zip World Cardiff adventure of your choice!
