Head to Calgary Olympic Park and try out one of the parks most loco activities. Strap into a life-size opaque hamster ball with one or two people, and commence the ride of your life as the ball is rolled down a downhill track. Known in Calgary as Z-trip, you may know it as Zorbing, the official name given by the inventors who come from New Zealand. After seeing how much fun those kiwi’s were havin’ in the southern hemisphere, a team at Calgary’s Olympic Park said “We gotta get one of those”. Sure enough, they did. Z-tripping operates weekends between 10:00am and 5:00pm, and will accept booking of 10 or more people throughout the summer. Rates Individual - $33 Additional same-day rides - $20 Groups: (12 - 39) - $27/person Groups: (40+) - $25/person Group capacity 24 people/hour Make your booking here [mappress]
