Somewhere in the gap between helicopter tours and hiking has emerged a rainforest adventure called ZIPLINING.
Strapped safely in a harness, the zipliner races over a series of cables. Once you’re buckled up, you’ll dip through leafy-topped old-growth trees, fl y over unique volcanic terrain, and soar past waterfalls — lots of them.
Perched among the trees of Hālawa, KOHALA ZIPLINE’S KOHALA CANOPY ADVENTURE features elevated suspension bridges, soaring tree platforms and thrilling ziplines. Exclusive features, such as twin Whisper Lines and smooth-stop braking, ensure safety and comfort.
HAWAI‘I ZIPLINE TOURS takes guests directly above multiple waterfalls, and its awe-inspiring tour, located just below the world-famous ‘ AKAKA FALLS, has you soaring over a 250-foot waterfall! This tour also happens to be a long one, measuring in at a staggering 3,350 feet!
And situated within the spectacular WORLD BOTANICAL GARDENS & WATERFALLS in Hakalau, you’ll be able to zipine through the
HAKALAU RAINFOREST. Just minutes from Hilo, this tour offers eight ziplines and a suspension bridge — all located within a tropical rainforest. World Botanical Gardens are located north of Hilo, off Highway 19, at mile marker 16.
Each of the courses offers its own distinctive characteristics, but all make safety a top priority. Before harnessing up, zipliners are given thorough instructions, and then are safely outfitted. Passenger weight and/or height restrictions may apply. Consult each company for specifics. BOTANICAL WORLD ADVENTURES 808-731-1160 KOHALA ZIPLINE 808-331-3620 HAWAI‘I ZIPLINE TOURS 808-963-6353
