JUST when you thought you had seen everything George Town has to offer, you can now enjoy the city from a platform 239m off the ground. 

The RM4 million Gravityz, touted as the world’s highest rope course, is an outdoor adventure platform located at The Top, on the 65th floor of Komtar tower.

There are six obstacles along the 90m walk, which gives you an opportunity to conquer your fears on the outside of Penang’s landmark tower. They include among others a flying fox zip-line, a high-rope course, and a “great bridge” challenge.

Gravityz operations director Henry Wong said it would take about 30 to 45 minutes to complete the course. – February 24, 2018.
