Wahoo Zipline threads roughly two miles of cable through a hardy beech-and-oak canopy outside Pigeon Forge, carrying riders between platforms set from about 40 to 250 feet above the forest floor. Walking trails link the platforms, so the trip alternates between short hikes and flights above the treetops; the course is laid out to build anticipation and to hold your attention from launch to landing.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE CANOPY

Skyline of Beech and Oak

The course runs through a dense stand of beech and oak, offering continuous canopy perspectives as lines carry you above, through and alongside the trees.

THE COURSE

Approximately Two Miles Between Platforms

About two miles of cables are strung between multiple platforms, with line heights ranging from roughly 40 feet up to 250 feet—designed to build anticipation and deliver varied exposures.

THE TRAIL

Walking Trails Connect the Experience

A pleasant network of walking trails along the forest floor links many of the platforms, creating regular moments on foot for groups to share stories between ziplines.

What the day feels like

What it feels like

The course alternates short on-foot approaches with launches from timber platforms, then long, exposed runs above the canopy—each zip varies in height and length so the rhythm of buildup and release is constant. From lower lines near 40 feet to the highest runs at about 250 feet, the staging and the connected trails make the outing a blend of hiking, shared moments at platforms, and repeated bursts of flight.
