2.) Royal Gorge Zip Line Tours

Sure to get the heart pumping, the zipline at Royal Gorge in Cañon City is one of the fastest courses in North America! Between the classic and extreme courses, there's more than 3 miles of extreme adventure in the air.

3.) Durango Adventures and Zipline Tours

This course is situated in a beautiful nature park in the San Juan Mountains near Durango, so riders get stunning views of surrounding mountains, ponderosa pine forests and town as they soar through the sky.

4.) AVA Colorado Zipline

AVA offers two incredible locations for ziplining. The course in Idaho Springs is an exciting cliffside adventure, and even has a pair of race lines in case you want to challenge a friend. The thrilling trips are generally about 2.5 to 3.5 hours long.

Soaring Tree Top Adventures provides an unforgettable zipline experience, through the scenic wilderness of the San Juan National Forest. The 5.5-hour excursion is on a remote, private property and can only be accessed by train. It's known to be the longest zipline in the country too!

6.) Top of the Rockies Zipline

This company gives riders the true feeling of being rocky mountain high, as they soar over spectacular, panoramic views of the Rocky Mountains via zipline. To add to the thrills, one of the cables takes riders right over a railroad track, which means possibly flying above a moving train.
