Itinerary
After checking in at our guest center, gear up at the staging area and get to know your guides. Next, we load onto our transit to go up the private road to Zipline #1 which is a short starter line to get the first taste of our paradise adventure.
After flying over the first zip over the Hanapueo Gorge we take a slight walk down the trail to the other ziplines, each with their own unique character and features. After zipline #3 we cross the gorge on the exciting suspension bridge over waterfalls and rapids.
Ziplines #4 through #7 each increase in size and speed to prepare for the last 2 lines that are dual racing side-by-side zips. Zipline #8 is nearly a half mile of fun with speeds up to 50 mph that slows down as you get in the belly of the cable with a magnificent view of the secluded, pristine, 250 foot tall Kamaee Falls and the Jurassic gorge it flows through.
After you land, be sure to walk the rim to the overlook building to watch other zippers arrive and take the opportunity for photos with the waterfall you just flew over in the background. Our guides will also be taking photos that you can share with friends and family even while the tour is progressing. That's right, let them share the tour with you as you fly!
We then return to the staging area to share memories and de-gear.
