Zipline

Description

Two BIG Ziplines on this Alaska Zipline Tour:

The Nitro

Take a short nature hike and ascend our three-story tower for panoramic mountain views and the ride of your life.

The scenery from the platform of the Nitro zipline

Then, take a “leap of faith” and experience flight! After the initial adrenaline-inducing step off of the tower, you’ll zip down a cable and through the forest before coasting to the end of the line. The first step is challenging, but after that, gravity does the work!

• Length: 1,500 feet (457 meters, over a quarter mile)
• Speed: 30 – 40 miles per hour
• Height: Launch tower is 30 feet high on a hill 150 feet above the river.

The G2

Hop in our shuttle and meet us at the top of a cliff towering 250 feet above the Matanuska River. Enjoy amazing views of the mountains, river and glacier before stepping off of the deck for a high-speed zip over 2200 feet long!

The G2 has dual ziplines, so bring a friend to race to the end of the line!

Enjoying paramount perspectives from the G2 launching area

Launching off of the deck of the G2 is an entirely different experience from the Nitro, and some find it less intimidating.  The thrill will hit you 2 seconds later as you pass over the edge of the cliff and the ground drops 250 feet!

• Length: 2,200 feet (670 meters, almost a half mile)
• Speed: 45 – 60 miles per hour (maximum recorded speed is 63 mph.)
• Height: Launch deck is 12 feet high on a cliff 250 feet above the river.

Maybe you are looking to make the most of your afternoon or morning by adding some thrill to the day. Experience some adrenaline and take in the paramount views of this glaciated valley all at once! This Alaska zipline tour is included in some of our tour packages and we can even tailor to a private tour.
