You are never disconnected from our patented safety system unless you are in a designated disconnect location. You can rest assured that safety is our number one priority. We take our safety standards seriously so that you can have an amazing experience while ziplining with us! Thousands have had life long memorable and fun experiences with us since 1999.

As a standard procedure before any zipline or canopy adventure, guests must participate in a detailed safety course briefing. Our guests must attend a 20-30 minute live briefing on safety, how to use the gear, what to do and what not to do. Our guests never go out by themselves and are always accompanied by professionally trained and experienced guides. Guests must meet weight, age and physical requirements before being allowed out on the course. See Can I Zip? for restrictions. All restrictions are in place for the safety of our guests and staff.
