The Great Bungee Company

· Harpers Ferry, WV

Why you should go…

New for 2026, The Great Bungee Company runs bungee jumps at the Old Standard Quarry across from Schoolhouse Ridge Battlefield in Harpers Ferry. Jumps happen over the quarry with the national historical park as a backdrop, and the same outfit connects visitors to rafting and tubing nearby. Book ahead; slots go fast on weekends.

Good to know

General sport & outdoor guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • Weather calls the shots

    Check the forecast the morning of and keep an indoor backup in your pocket for the day it turns.

  • Shoes, water, sun cover

    The three things that decide whether you last the whole outing or cut it short after an hour.

  • Parking and launches fill early

    On a nice weekend, lots and trailheads are often full by mid-morning.

  • Daylight shrinks in shoulder season

    Spring and fall visits need an earlier start than the same trip in July.
