The Cairns Site

The Smithfield Tower as it is called was completed on the 16th of August 1990. It was at the time the first purpose build Bungy platform in the world and the third commercial Bungy Site on the planet! It took 12 months planning and 6 months to construct. The tower is 50m / 164ft high. Before this tower was constructed there was just raw Australian Rainforest! All development on this site has been done with the environment and natural surroundings in mind. We pride ourselves on taking care, managing and acting responsibly in regards to the environment in which we operate.

The natural layout of the site and positioning of the tower makes it one of the most beautiful Bungy sites in the world.

Snakes, Goannas and Native Birds roam the site and a series of waterfalls allow a stream of water from the mountain to flow naturally into the pond and underneath the building.

There are 4 different viewing decks around the site to ensure you have the best position to watch both the Bungy jump and Minjin jungle Swing.

The main building, which houses merchandise, licensed bar and reception area was built in 1999 and was designed to compliment the natural elements of the rainforest and the amazing experience on offer.

All of this development was designed by AJ himself and much of the construction completed by AJ and the Cairns crew.

Since 1990 this site has been visited by hundreds of celebrities. It has some sort of strange magnetism that attracts interesting people such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, John Denver, Miss Universe and Slash from Guns and Roses to name a very small few.
