Popular zipline returning to Maffeo Sutton Park this summer
NANAIMO — People will once again be able to soar high above Maffeo Sutton Park, soaking in the stunning views Nanaimo’s harbour has to offer from a unique vantage point.
The City awarded a contract to WildPlay Element Parks to operate a zipline over Swy-A-Lana Lagoon. The feature was initially installed for Hometown Hockey festivities in February 2017.
“During Hometown Hockey the zipline was hugely popular. There were lineups for the entire weekend and we heard nothing but good things. It was a real adventure for a lot of people to fly across the lagoon,” recreation services manager Mary Smith told NanaimoNewsNOW.
She said installation of the cable is underway now and WildPlay hoped to get the zipline up-and-running by mid-to-late June.
