Seven Ziplines, and the First Three Ease You In
A guided canopy course that starts you on three low practice lines before it takes you up for the higher ones. Seven lines and two skybridges over the creek and the waterfall, two hours, ten seats a departure.
Most zipline courses put the big line first and let you work it out in midair. This one is built the other way round. The operator sets out the shape on its own site: start on three intro lines, then take a ride to the higher ones. Seven lines and two skybridges in all, through the tree canopy and out over the creek and the waterfall.
That structure is doing most of the work. Travelers who wrote about it afterwards include a run of first-timers, several people in their seventies, and one person's eighty-year-old mother.
You have to be at least seven years old and weigh between 45 and 265 pounds to ride. The age shows up when you book. The weight does not.
One price covers anyone who clears those gates: USD 109.95 a person, with no separate child fare and no group discount. A booking can be a single traveler.

The operator publishes two hard gates on its own zip page and repeats them in its own reservation system: ages seven and up, 45 to 265 pounds. The page you book through carries the age band and says nothing about weight at all.
The operator's refund policy is where that gap shows its teeth. Its FAQ lists no refunds for a no-show, for cancelling inside 24 hours, or for "under or over weights". That wording governs the operator's own bookings rather than this one, but it is a plain statement that the limit is checked and that falling outside it is treated as the traveler's problem. On this booking the published terms give a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time, and nothing inside that window.
Settle the weight question before you book, not at the office.
A second rule sits only on the operator's side. Its zip page says anyone under 16 needs adult supervision. The booking form does not require an adult on the reservation, so a party that looks fine at checkout can still be short one grown-up at check-in.
The booking page also carries three standing advisories: not recommended for pregnant travelers, not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health, and a note that travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness. The operator repeats none of the three on its own site or in its reservation system, so the booking page is the only place you will meet them.
How the Two Hours Actually Run
Three intro lines come first, down near the base. Then, in the operator's words, you "take a ride to the higher lines" for the rest. Travelers describe being driven up the mountain for that second half. Seven lines and two skybridges by the end, and guides handle the braking.
Ten seats go on each departure. That is not inferred from the booking form. The operator's own reservation system puts ten on every slot sampled, and the booking page caps a shared tour at ten as well. The floor is one, so a solo traveler can hold a place.
Four start times are loaded: nine, eleven, two and four. Not all four run every day, and some days carry none at all, so the date you pick decides more than the hour does. Arrive fifteen minutes before the start. Online booking closes two hours out.
Rain, Shoes, Lockers, and the Dog
The operator runs in the wet. Its FAQ says normal tour times hold even if it rains, and that it reschedules for lightning or high winds. Rain will not move your slot. Lightning will.
Closed-toe shoes are required for every harnessed activity. One traveler's whole parting note was a warning about open toes. Lockers are free and are the only thing this booking lists as included, so everything else you carry is on you.
Dogs are welcome across the property except on the harnessed activities, which means the hiking trails work for them and the course does not. Plan a handler if the dog comes along.
The Calendar Stops at New Year
Checked in early October 2026, both channels run out in the same place. The booking page has departures loaded through 31 December and returns nothing operable for any date in 2027, right out to the end of its booking window. The operator's own reservation system has no 2027 calendar at all: those months simply do not exist yet, and the same is true of the park's other zipline course, so this is not something particular to this tour.
Nothing here is bookable past 31 December 2026.
Neither channel says why, and neither says when next year opens. Travelers posted about riding here in the first week of January a year earlier, so an empty 2027 is not by itself evidence of a season that shuts. If your trip lands after New Year, there is nothing to hold yet and it is worth looking again nearer the date.
The operator puts the drive at twenty minutes from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. One traveler clocked it nearer thirty, which is the number to plan on if you are cutting it fine. Check in at the main office. Reservations are recommended rather than required, and walk-ups are accepted.
After that it is three easy lines, a ride to the higher ones, and the long crossings out over the water. There is a hard cider shop on the property for afterwards, and one traveler found it already closed at the end of a late tour, so take an earlier slot and finish the day with a glass.
