If you’re looking for a day of incredible views of scenic landscapes but also like to get that adrenaline rush, then you need to try a zip line course. Soaring across acres, sometimes hundreds of feet above the ground, with only your harness between you and the trees will make any adventure-seeker fulfilled.

Usually, courses are more than just a simple zip line. You can find obstacle courses, treetop bridges, and parallel lines to let you race against your friends. Remember that most, if not all, zip line courses require reservations in advance and have certain physical requirements, so call ahead.

Best Zip Line Adventures in the U.S.

For the Fastest Ride: Hocking Hills Canopy Tours

Hocking-Hills-Canopy-Tours

When Hocking Hills became the first Zip Line Adventure Tour in Ohio, they wanted to make sure they were making the best course in the midwest. With this green course, platforms and lines are built sustainably from trees rather than constructing poles, letting you get immersed in the canopy. Reach speeds of up to 50 mph when you ride for 600 feet on the longest run.

Soaring also prides itself on being the safest in the world by using helicopter-grade cable for the smoothest ride.
