ZORB Rotorua
Globe riding with ZORB Rotorua is a great way to get your adrenaline fix, and a must-do adventure activity when you're visiting New Zealand.

The sport of globe riding - "rolling down a hill in a large inflatable ball" - was invented in New Zealand, and has been developed and refined by ZORB for over 15years. ZORB Rotorua is the only site in New Zealand to go globe riding, and has visitors from all corners of the globe coming for their little taste of adventure.

ZORB Rotorua has something for everyone - ride wet or dry, solo or with mates, straight or zig-zag, tumbling or sliding...you name it, there's something here for you! Globe riding with ZORB is great fun for the whole family (6years and up) and a must-do activity whether you're hear on holiday, or simply visiting friends & relatives.

Ride Options
ZORB Rotorua has two main ride options: The ZYDRO (wet) ride and the ZORBIT (dry) ride - both completely different.

The ZYDRO ride is our most popular ride and will have you slipping, sliding and spinning (note here, no tumbling!) your way down our hill. We throw you and a few litres of water (warm in winter, cool in summer) into our ZORB globe and send you on your way down our hill. You can choose to ride solo down our straight zig-zag or the drop tracks, or with up to two other mates down our straight track. Definitely a wild ride...

The ZORBIT ride is what we like to call our "Astronaut in training" ride. We securely strap you into our specially designed safety harness within our ZORB globe and send you on your way down our straight track. Unlike the ZYDRO ride, the ZORBIT will have you tumbling head-over-heels down our hill with a mix of g-force and weightlessness. There are three ride variations to the ZORBIT so no one ride is the same! Not for the faint hearted...

Note: There are ride restrictions for both the ZYDRO and the ZORBIT so be sure to check out our website under "Rides" for information on these restrictions.

ZORB Rotorua is open 364 days a year (closed Xmas Day) and is a great activity whether its raining or beautifully sunny. We have been the winner of the Visitors Choice awards as a must-see activity in New Zealand, and often make the Top 10 on visitors "Things to do before I die" lists.

Viewing is free, so come on over and see what all the fuss is about. Take some time out to watch others have an awesome time experiencing globe riding with ZORB.
