It is the only international zip line globally that connects two different countries.

The project was designed to promote tourism between the Alentejo region of Portugal and the Huelva province of Spain.
Limitezero is a cross-border zip line connecting Sanlúcar de Guadiana in Spain to Alcoutim in Portugal. The 720-meter cable crosses the Guadiana River, which serves as the international boundary between the two countries. Participants travel at speeds reaching 70 to 80 kilometers per hour. The journey spans a one-hour time zone difference, effectively landing participants in a different time zone than their point of departure. It is the only zip line in the world that transports visitors from one country to another. The infrastructure includes a landing platform on the Portuguese side and a launch ramp on the Spanish side. Gravity provides the primary propulsion for the transit over the water. It is managed by a private adventure company that requires advance registration.
The landing platform in Alcoutim provides the best view looking back across the river toward the Spanish hillside.
