Samui Zipline: 3 Parks, Prices, Age & Weight Limits (2026)

Overview

Samui zipline options come down to three parks: Hawk Adventure (the biggest, about 1,900-2,700 THB), Tree Bridge (about 1,800-1,900 THB, with a treetop cafe) and Samui Zipline at Lipa Noi (about 1,600-1,900 THB, the west-coast option). Minimum ages are listed between 5 and 7 and weight limits at roughly 20-105 kg, so the real choice is usually your pickup area, your group’s ages and how long a course you want. Beyond ziplines, the jungle interior around Na Muang and Ang Thong also holds ATV operators, an EasyKart track and Asia’s first footgolf course. This guide compares what is operating in 2026, drops the venues that have closed, and says which activity fits families, couples and adrenaline seekers. Every price is a starting rate (as of 2026); operators and booking sites list slightly different figures, so confirm before you go.

Key takeaways

• Three zipline parks are operating: Hawk Adventure (biggest, 33 platforms), Tree Bridge Cafe & Zipline (Mae Nam), and Samui Zipline Lipa Noi (18 platforms). Canopy Adventures near Mae Nam is reported permanently closed. Do not book it.
• Zipline limits are listed as about 20-105 kg and a minimum age of 5-7 depending on the park and the listing. Ask the operator for the exact figures before you travel with young children.
• X-Quad Samui and Samui X-Treme ATV Adventure are the two most-reviewed quad bike operators; both run 2-4 hour jungle and waterfall routes from around 1,500 THB (~43 USD).
• Go-karting means EasyKart at Chaweng Lake: Samui Go Kart in Bophut has closed.
• Football Golf, near Big Buddha, is a genuine one-off: an 18-hole footgolf course through a 300-species botanical garden.
• Standard travel insurance frequently excludes ATV/quad injuries outright. Check your policy wording before booking, not after.

Samui Zipline Parks Compared

All three parks include helmets, harnesses, gloves, guides and hotel pickup within their free zones. The differences are course length, where you start and who it suits. Prices are starting rates as of 2026; listings vary by a few hundred baht.

Which one? Hawk Adventure if you want the biggest course, Samui Zipline if you are staying on the west side or have younger children, Tree Bridge if you want a shorter course with a cafe stop.

Ziplines and Canopy Tours

Three zipline parks operate on Koh Samui in 2026, all clustered in the hilly interior rather than on the coast. Canopy Adventures, the long-running course near Mae Nam and Na Muang that older guides still list, is reported permanently closed: recent Tripadvisor reviews say the tour no longer runs and the operator could not be reached, so skip any listing still advertising it.

Hawk Adventure Zipline Park (also sold as Skyhawk Adventure), in the Ang Thong hills toward the island’s interior, is the largest course on Samui: 33 platforms, 21 ziplines totaling roughly 5,000 m, two sky corridors, three suspension bridges, and three vertical descents of 20 m, 30 m, and 40 m. The Hawk Silver package (14 lines, about 2,000-3,000 m depending on the listing) runs about 1,900 THB (~54 USD); the full Hawk Gold package (all 33 platforms, 5,000 m, about 3 hours) runs about 2,700 THB (~77 USD). Both include hotel transfer from most areas of the island, and Hawk asks for a passport copy at registration for the included accident insurance.

Tree Bridge Cafe & Zipline, in the hills above Mae Nam, is a shorter course of 8-9 cables (listed lengths range from about 1,200 to 2,000 m in total) plus a suspension bridge to a treetop cafe platform. Expect about 60 minutes on the lines. It runs around 1,795-1,900 THB (~51-54 USD), the same for adults and children, with more limited free-transfer zones than Hawk Adventure. Confirm pickup from your area before booking.

Samui Zipline at Lipa Noi, on the island’s quieter west side, is the smallest of the three: 18 platforms, 8 ziplines (longest run 300 m), 4 sky bridges, and a 15 m abseil descent, for about 1,600-1,900 THB (~46-54 USD) per person depending on the program (a shorter 16-platform, 5-line option is also listed), including fruit, drinks, and insurance. Minimum age is listed as 5 or 6, among the youngest of the three parks, which makes it a default pick for families with younger children. Free pickup covers Lipa Noi, Nathon, Taling Ngam, and Bang Po; other areas pay a 200 THB (~5.50 USD) transfer surcharge.

Zipline Age and Weight Limits

Expect a minimum age of roughly 5-7 and a weight range of about 20-105 kg at all three parks. Sources disagree on the exact numbers: Hawk Adventure is listed with a minimum age of 6 or 7 and a limit of 100-105 kg (one listing says up to 130 kg on the Gold course), Tree Bridge at 5-70 years and up to 100-120 kg, and Samui Zipline at 5-6 years and 20-105 kg. Check the weight of children as well as adults, and message the park before booking if anyone in your group is near a limit, because a refusal on the day is the operator’s call.

Is the Samui Zipline Safe?

The parks use harnesses with safety lines, helmets and guides who clip you in at each platform, and recent visitor reviews (2026) of Tree Bridge repeatedly mention careful, safety-focused guides. There is no published Samui-specific zipline injury rate, so judge an operator by its gear, briefing and recent reviews. Declare any heart, back or pregnancy concerns before you book, and read your travel insurance wording: many policies exclude adventure sports (more in the ATV safety section below).

ATV and Quad Bike Tours

X-Quad Samui, based in Mae Nam, is the most-reviewed ATV operator on the island (4.9 stars, 565+ Google reviews as of 2026) and the benchmark most comparison sites measure against. Its 2-hour beginner waterfall route starts at 2,800 THB (~80 USD) for a solo ATV; the 4-hour mountain tour, which adds a jungle-restaurant lunch and a swim stop at a hidden waterfall, starts at 4,500 THB (~129 USD) solo or 6,800-9,200 THB (~194-263 USD) for a double ATV or buggy shared between two riders. Minimum driver age is 11-12 depending on vehicle size; children under 10 ride as a paying passenger only. Both tours include hotel transfer, helmets, and the operator’s stated “full personal insurance,” plus a private-tour add-on for 4,500 THB (~129 USD) more.

Samui X-Treme ATV Adventure, based in Lamai, is a smaller, cheaper alternative at around 1,500 THB (~43 USD) for its shorter jungle route, a reasonable option if X-Quad’s Mae Nam base is inconvenient from the east coast, though it carries fewer verified reviews than X-Quad.

Beyond these two, at least half a dozen smaller ATV camps operate around Mae Nam and Nathon (Trail Blazers, Green Mountain, Jungle Quad, Orange Wave, and Wild Action Samui among them) priced from roughly 1,500-2,800 THB (~43-80 USD) per rider for 1-2 hour rides. Reviews and reliability vary more than with the two operators above; check current ratings before booking any of them. Our Samui ATV operator comparison lines up published prices, age limits and licence rules for X-Quad, Lexi, Trail Blazers, Jungle Quad and Samui X-Treme.

Go-Karting

EasyKart Koh Samui, at Chaweng Lake, is the island’s operating go-kart track in 2026: two circuits (a 350 m beginner track and an 800 m main track) with karts from 100cc to 270cc. Single 8-minute races run from about 499 THB (~14 USD) for a Kid Kart, 699 THB (~20 USD) for a Regular or two-seater Family kart, up to 1,499 THB (~43 USD) for a Fast Kart. Age and height cutoffs are strict: Kid Karts need riders 7-12 years old and at least 130 cm; Regular Karts need riders 13+ and 140 cm+; Fast Karts are restricted to riders 15+ and 150 cm+. A two-seater option lets an adult driver (20+) carry a child passenger from 110 cm. Multi-race packages bring the per-race cost down noticeably.

Samui Go Kart, a separate track that used to operate in Bophut, has closed: recent listings mark it shut, so EasyKart is the only verified track left on the island.

Football Golf and Other Adventures

Samui Football Golf, on the beach road roughly 10 minutes from Chaweng and 5 minutes from Big Buddha, bills itself as Asia’s first footgolf course: an 18-hole, 1.2 km layout played by kicking a football into golf-style holes, set inside a botanical garden with 300+ tropical plant species. A round takes about 90 minutes. Walk-in prices are 750 THB (~21 USD) for adults and 350 THB (~10 USD) for children aged 5-11, rising to 850-1,050 THB (~24-30 USD) with hotel transfer depending on distance from the course. The price includes a soft drink, ball, and shoe rental if needed, and smaller futsal balls are available for younger or non-sports players.

No other adventure park on Koh Samui could be independently confirmed as operating in 2026 at the time of writing: several older “jungle adventure” and rope-course listings found in search results are either permanently closed, unreviewed in years, or duplicates of the zipline parks above. If you find one advertised locally, check recent reviews before booking.

Comparing Koh Samui’s Adventure Activities

Zipline courses last about 1-3 hours and ATV tours 1-4 hours; hotel transfer is included for ziplines and X-Quad, and self-arranged for EasyKart.

For more jungle and waterfall stops near these operators, see Na Muang Waterfall and the Na Muang trail, both close to the Mae Nam-based ATV and zipline bases.

Safety: What to Know Before You Ride

ATVs and quad bikes carry a real rollover and collision risk on uneven jungle trails, and Thailand’s road-safety record does not help the general perception: more than 30 people die on Thailand’s roads every day, the large majority on two- and four-wheeled vehicles, and tourist-area hospitals in Samui, Phuket, and Phangan report treating foreign visitors for road-related injuries daily. There is no published Samui-specific ATV injury rate, so treat any operator’s “zero accidents” claim with caution: every reputable tour still requires a helmet and a pre-ride safety briefing precisely because the risk is real.

The single most important thing to check before booking any ATV or quad tour is your travel insurance policy wording. Many standard travel insurance plans explicitly exclude ATV and quad bike riding, whether as driver or passenger, and most will not cover you at all if you ride without a helmet, ride after drinking, or use an unlicensed rental operator. Ask the operator directly whether their stated “insurance” covers medical costs or only property damage. Several ATV operators word this vaguely, and it is worth getting a straight answer before you sign a waiver. If your own travel insurer excludes adventure sports, a specialist add-on policy that explicitly names ATV/quad biking is the only way to be properly covered.

Ziplines and go-karts carry lower but non-zero risk: zipline injuries are almost always tied to harness or clip failure, which is why every operator above emphasizes being clipped in at all times; go-kart injuries are typically minor (collisions, whiplash) given the low top speeds (25-43 km/h) on enclosed tracks. Footgolf carries the least risk of anything on this list.

Which Adventure Is Right for You?

Families with young kids (under 10): Samui Zipline Lipa Noi (minimum age 5) or Football Golf. Skip ATVs: most operators set the driving age at 11-12, and riding double as a young passenger on rough trails is not worth the risk.

Couples wanting one big adrenaline activity: Hawk Adventure’s Gold package (longest, most varied course) or an X-Quad 4-hour tour, which pairs jungle riding with a waterfall swim and lunch.

Budget travelers or a rainy-day filler: EasyKart’s Regular Kart (699 THB) or Football Golf (750 THB) both deliver a couple of hours of activity for under 1,000 THB.

Groups wanting to combine activities: Samui Zipline Lipa Noi explicitly offers an ATV add-on the same day at its west-coast base, and several Mae Nam ATV operators sit a short drive from Hawk Adventure and Tree Bridge.

Anyone nervous about injury risk: Football Golf or a Silver-package zipline tour, both have full harness/safety-line systems or no vehicle at all, and neither shows up in insurance exclusion lists the way ATVs do.

Is the tree bridge zipline in Koh Samui safe?
