One of the greatest things about ziplining is that virtually anyone can participate, even if he or she has never hooked up to a zipline before. Unlike high-thrill activities like skydiving and bungee jumping, ziplining is a completely accessible recreation, suitable for anyone who falls within our age and weight requirements.
Even total novices can soon be ziplining thanks to our trained instructors and guides, who work with first-timers and repeat customers alike every step of the way—from getting everyone suited up with just the right safety gear to instructions on how to exit a launch platform and safely arrive on each landing platform. You'll also receive detailed information on what to do during your high-speed ride along our 18 zipline runs—from steering and braking to enjoying the sights along the way.
Our zip lines in Gatlinburg, TN are also designed to accommodate all experience levels. We start you off nice and easy on our training lines, which are low and slow, allowing you to get the hang of ziplining. But by the time you reach the end of our canopy tour and SuperZip course, you'll be flying through the air like a pro.
