A soaring zip experience through the trees. 3 hours, half-mile, 11 sections, Sky Bridges and transfer bridges. More than just a zip line ride, the Canopy Tour takes you through multiple ecosystems, past hemlocks, into hardwood treetops over the forest floor blanketed with native flowering plants. Each group is accompanied by two trained Canopy Rangers. Flyers must be in good physical condition; able to lift arms overhead, some weight and age limitations. « less

I was just in Asheville this weekend to visit my mom and she told me about this place. I was so excited to finally go ziplining, something I've always wanted to do! My friend and I met our guides, Charlie and Red, got our gear on, and after a brief, but thorough "trial zip" we hiked up and set out... more

Great Fun

This is located at the Falling Waters Resort across the street from the Rafting outside of Bryson City NC. We had never zip-lined and we a little worried what we would encounter. Well it was an unfounded worry. Our guides Jeff &... more

Active mom with teenage boys first canopy tour. Fear of heights (mine) only surfaced once, as I crossed a transfer bridge with missing planks. Felt safe throughout the experience. Knowledgeble and fun staff(Rangers), especially Carolyn, who helped me harness up, Jack and Cricket, who led the adventure and offered assistance with clips and encouragement throughout. First rate operation. more
