No worries and no experience necessary. Experienced guides will clip you from zipline to zipline as you glide through the treetops from each swinging platform suspended in the branches. No braking necessary. Although you are only 30-50 ft above the ground, you’ll feel a mile high because the topography allows you to see a spectacular view of the mountains and space needle as you fly through the trees like Tarzan, yet come to a gentle controlled landing on each swinging platform or on the ground. Not too high, not too fast, t hese ziplines are perfect for young , old, daring or timid, as you progress through 2 skybridges and 9 ziplines from 30 to 500 feet.
And at night, the forest lights up for Zip Gatlinburg’s twilight tour, with glimmering lights and magical sights and sounds of trees aglow as you zip through dancing lighted cables and dancing branches.
A totally green experience, Zip Gatlinburg is Eco friendly, and has preserved 3 acres of commercial land in downtown Gatlinburg in its natural state. All platforms and ziplines are suspended with no penetrations into the trees, to preserve their health.

We were part of the group with Dr. Bob Scott who “flew” this past Sunday. We had a blast! Even though I struggle with heights, I felt safe throughout the whole experience – in fact, once I got into it, I really didn’t notice the height at all. Your guides and staff are fabulous. I would, and will, recommend this wonderful experience to anyone.
