Guests traverse the elements in groups of two or three taking on a new challenge with every step. Elements include walking, climbing, and swinging through the air.

Adventure Zip Line Tours consist of traveling on six zip wires connected to trees and utility poles where you zip from platform to platform. Zip lines are 75’-400’ long.

Two staff members accompany each tour providing safety instruction, information on the area, ecology, and plenty of laughs!

From there, a Zombie will attach you to the first zip line and send you flying through the night sky!
