There are a number of Smoky Mountain zip line operators in the area, but not all of them are the same. So before you choose which location to visit, you might want to call ahead and ask a few questions, to make sure you're getting the best ziplining experience for yourself and your family or group.
How many ziplines do you have? Many companies only offer a few ziplines for the customers to enjoy. At Smoky Mountain Ziplines, we have a total of 18, more than any other area zipline business.
How much are your zipline tours? The reason to ask this is because lower prices don't always mean better value. Because of the number of ziplines on our tours and the amount of time you get to spend zipping, we offer our customers a tremendous value for the money.
How much walking is involved? At some locations, you have to do a lot of hiking—often uphill—between zipline runs. At Smoky Mountain Ziplines, each launch platform is generally only a few steps from the previous landing platform.
