Best Zip Lines In Vail! Took my 16 year old there and loved it. The terrain is very scenic, the equipment is high quality, the guides are very engaged and the zip lines are fast!

Its close to Vail so its not a long drive. The place is well organized so you feel confident going with them. The 6 zip lines take about 1.5 hrs or so to do. They are each a bit different so you don't get bored. The place is full service so the stop you and make sure you are properly clipped in.

There is also a 65' jump, which I high recommend. Do it as a trust fall, its much better!

The other tip I would give is to try hanging upside down, it makes zip lining even more interesting.

You aren't going to grab a pine cone, so don't waste that run trying to get one (you get a free shirt if you grab one), just do the tandem and enjoy! More

Excellent Family Day Adventure ! Great for ALL ages!! This was truly one of the best days we've had as a family in a long time. After being quarantined for months, my two boys (4&7) couldn't have been more excited to go zip lining. I love how this is Locally Owned and Operated. CJ and Matt take pride in everything they do and keep the staff well informed. The staff did a wonderful job of double checking all of our equipment constantly and making me feel that my children were safe. I also felt that part of the tour was also a Nature lesson they would talk about the surrounding area and some of the interesting facts we were looking at.
On our very last zip line, both of my children asked if we could go again. Absolutely! We will be back!!! This is a great activity for all ages! One you won't want to miss while visiting the Vail Valley.

Fun day zip lining We are a family of 9 and we all had a blast. The guides (Cannon and Jimmy) were very friendly, experienced and we felt extremely safe with them. They gave us history of the cannon, some nature facts and also they were just good guys with any generation. Our favorite zips from our group were the tandem and the plunge. This was a great family day the pictures they took were hysterical, worth the package for 100.00 for us since there were 9 of us. …

Excellent Staff, Great Views, and FUN surprises Great Views and Best Staff! Shane and Q made this experience more than just a memory for us. The jokes, service, and genuine conversations shared by them (on top of the views) is the reason I will be bragging about this adventure. Riding in a Pinzgauer and popsicles overlooking the canyon were icing on the cake! …

Great day and fun guides! I went ziplining with my teenage kids and had a fantastic time. The six different ziplines (and freefall) that we did were all different and really fun. Kudos to our two guides who made the trip really fun with tips, stories and jokes, and got to know each of our larger group by name - very impressive. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fun ziplining experience in the Vail area.

Outstanding outfit and team- best zipline adventure in the American West “bar none!” After a rocky start due to travel logistics on our end, Zip Adventures of Vail agreed to still let us in our group even though we were late. It’s important to be on time because it’s such a terrific adventure that they can fill their slots with other people if you can’t make it but usually it’s too late by then for the company so to refund they would loose meaningful revenue- tough to understand as a tourist- but they deal with this everyday. This is such a professional outfit and terrific with kids. Our guides, Kannon and Shane, were true pros and super safe, fun and great with kids. My boys Evan (9) and Patrick (8) had never been on a zipline course like this which is rated in some publications as number 4 in the world. The management and support (Sonya, CJ are also pros and super hard working).

The course is no joke, the speed, cross canyon winds and heights up to 250 ft above the canyon floor can certainly be intimidating but this crew has it down to a science, and it’s super fun and safe. I highly recommend Zip Adventures of Vail to any family or couple in the area- my boys loved every minute of it.

Awesome experience Our family (parents + 8 and 9 year olds) had so much fun on the ziplining experience! The zipline course is awesome and super fun and the guides, the service was excellent and well-organized at check-in and check-out, and the guides (Jimmy and Q) were great - knowledgeable, fun, and professional. We've ziplined in numerous places, and this was definitely an awesome experience. …
