THE ROUTE

River-crossing zips

Two of the park’s ziplines carry riders on a direct crossing of the River Garry, offering dramatic views down into the gorge as the line stretches between the valley sides.

THE SETTING

Treetop runs above the valley

The course consists of a series of ziplines that let visitors soar above the forested slopes of the Killiecrankie valley, placing the landscape — not just the thrill — at the center of the experience.

THE THRILL

A concentrated burst of adrenaline

The park’s configuration of multiple ziplines delivers an intense, continuous ride sequence that emphasizes short, memorable bursts of speed and exposure across the gorge and through the trees.

What the day feels like

Expect a compact, focused adventure: arrive at the Killiecrankie Visitor Centre, complete a safety briefing and harness-fit, then move through a sequence of lines that thread the treetops and cross the River Garry. The course frames the Highland scenery as part of the ride, so the physical sensation of zipping is matched by clear views of the valley below.
