We are doing the
FULL EXTREME ADVENTURE!Full Extreme Adventure Tour - Can take up to 4 - 5 hours. Includes three long lines, two 1000ft zip lines, a 770ft high speed zip line that that travels thru a tunnel of trees, plus a series of High Tree traversing cable wood bridges connecting tree platforms and shorter zip lines that will keep you in the air from 50 to 200ft high the whole time.
PLUS, we will also do their really long 1500+ ft zip lines called the Big Daddy! We will then do (Little Daddy) to the ground and walk back with one of your Tree Guides to the main lodge on our beautiful trails, some of which are the old town roads and old water raceways of the ghost town of Banning.
WAIT... we'll continue on to the High Tree Trek, Gorge Traverse, a tour criss crossing back and forth over the Snake Creek Gorge on long and high cable, wood bridges and tree plat forms that are unbelievable. Heights vary from 50 to 100 ft in the air. You will go on to the amazing Sky Trek bridge that is 600ft long and 170ft above the gorge. End with four more long and fast zip lines which includes the SCREAMING EAGLE, a 2400+ ft high speed zip line that starts in one of the tallest timber pole towers in the World, AND now Two NEW lines back to the Main lodge- Breath taking Adventure and Awesome views! You will cross Snake Creek Gorge 100 - 300ft, seven times. This is about 3 1/2 to 5 hour adventure.
**You must be able to climb two 65 foot towers and a 100 ft tower, have good balance capabilities and be able to walk on uneven terrain, have full range of motion in your upper and lower extremities and be able to control one’s speed of travel along the zip lines by resting your gloved hands on the pulley and cable systems, be able to understand verbal instructions and be able to pull yourself along cables in case you lose momentum before reaching any said platform.
