"When he tires of running, an Assassin must take to the air."

Ezio using a zipline in Constantinople.

Ziplines were ropes stretched between two structures that, when used in conjunction with the hookblade, allowed one to quickly navigate the city.

After traveling to Constantinople and learning of the hookblade from the local Assassins, Ezio Auditore da Firenze made use of ziplines to both navigate different areas, and perform air assassinations on targets below him.

Trivia

• Capturing a Templar Den, which converts it into an Assassin Den, will increase the amount of ziplines in the area around it.
• Ziplines can be jumped upon at any point along the line.
• Parachuting onto a zipline is required to unlock the achievement/trophy, Show Off 20G/Bronze Trophy.
• Byzantines can be seen trying to destroy ziplines after they take control of dens.
• Although much rarer, Byzantines can still be seen trying to destroy ziplines even if Constantinople is completely under Assassin control.
• High profile will make Ezio slide down the zipline faster, while low profile makes you go slightly slower.
• The starting pole of a zipline has the Assassin insignia on the top.
