Smoky Mountain Ziplines, Pigeon Forge

About Smoky Mountain Ziplines

Smoky Mountain Ziplines is a canopy tour in Pigeon Forge where visitors zip across seven lines totaling over 4,200 feet of cable through the forest. Participants travel lengths of 800 feet and heights exceeding 150 feet above the ground on lines reaching speeds up to 25 miles per hour. The experience begins at base camp with safety instruction and gear fitting, then guides transport visitors via military-style trucks up the mountain to the course. Intricate tree platforms and towering pole structures put zippers among the treetops with views of the Great Smoky Mountains. A distinctive 30-foot controlled-descent feature lowers visitors vertically. Visitors wear full-body five-point harnesses with an automatic belay device that handles braking. Two trained guides remain with each group throughout the two-hour tour, managing all hookups and unhooking so participants can focus on the experience. The course accommodates visitors ages eight and older within specified weight ranges, with no open-toe shoes permitted.
