Kalongkong Hiker - Avatar One ZiplineThe first roller coaster zipline was first installed in Hidden Worlds Adventure Park in Tulum, Mexico  on April 2010 on the Yucatan Peninsula. They say that this is a terrific day out for the family that has always peddled in soft adventure experiences like gentle “sky-cycling” through the jungle and zip-lining into crystal-clear cenotes. See the clip below on how it works.
