Nine Ziplines, Including the 1,500‑Foot Signature Run
The course sends you from treetop to treetop across nine ziplines—featuring long runs of about 850 ft., 950 ft. and a headline zipline more than 1,000 ft. and roughly 1500 ft.—offering extended airtime well above the canopy.
Canopy Views and Short Hikes Between Platforms

The tour begins on the ground with instruction and a hands‑on practice cable, then moves into a rhythm of launches and landings from wooden platforms high in the trees; intermittent short hikes connect the last platforms, and the sequence culminates in the longest run—more than a thousand feet and over 100 feet above the ground—delivering sustained exposure to speed and height.
