f the steepest ziplines in the world.
Your ride starts at the edge the K120 jump, at which point the force of gravity takes over and propels you to 50 mph, which is fairly close to the speeds of world-class ski jumpers. There are TWO Extreme Ziplines, so you can fly alongside a friend or family member for the whole ride.
We also have a kid-friendly Freestyle Zipline - it's a great way to warm up before stepping up to the big one. The Freestyle Zipline is bit shorter and less steep, and totally fun. Perfect for younger kids or adults who want a more leisurely ride.
