REVIEWS

  • Nothing short of awesome for the price!!! My husband and I did the full course with 6 other participants. Highland and Conner were our zip line gurus and they were attentive, knowledgeable, and fun! Highly recommend for anyone staying around the area!!!

  • My partner & I can't on Memorial Day weekend & had an amazing time. The views were absolutely spectacular & our guides, Connor and Emma were fantastic - knowledgeable, professional, thorough and funny. I'd never been zip lining before & they made me feel prepared & very comfortable. If you're thinking about going, definitely do it - the experience was well worth the money.

  • This experience was wonderful. Simultaneously relaxing and exhilarating, you can tell the people who designed it love adventure and nature. The zip lines had beautiful views and the speed that were interspersed with the walking bridge, the two rappel lines, and the little bit of hiking. The hiking wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, but I could definitely tell the steps were made for taller people. I’ve been telling everyone that this experience far exceeded my expectations. As cool as it was to zip line through the trees or rappel like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible, I contend the experience was made much richer because of the people I met. We had a varied group that I had a wonderful time chatting with in between zip lines. Wade and Lia were wonderful and hilarious, and their different personalities were delightful to experience. Wade was clearly very comfortable with the material, running through safety instructions and giving directions in a humorous and sarcastic way. Lia was informative and engaging as she shared a good pirate joke and information about some of her favorite trees we came across. Wade enriched the experience with witty banter, but I’m eternally grateful for Lia offering reassurances when I was nervous about the rappel line. Cannot recommend this experience or Wade and Lia enough!

  • While visiting the Asheville area, my sister and I decided on an adventure at The Gorge. It was exciting, fun and beautiful. Our guides, Lauren and Max, were both super positive and enthusiastic. I had a difficult time on the landings due to a bad knee and they both helped out so much. Definitely recommend!

  • While 11 zip lines, 3 rappels, and a ball-buster suspension bridge challenges even the experienced crowd, we newbies had a wonderful time! Benny and Gerry were fantastic guides, coaches, and even therapists for some of us. I'm 65, not in the best shape, and a bit frightened of heights (well, a lot!) and these 2 guys were supportive, patient, and OK...even funny. They made the day amazing and all five of us want to say thanks again for a great time!!

  • Terrific experience, this was my second time ziplining and it was a Blast, Cody was hilarious and did a great job of making things entertaining and enjoyable, she also was really good at Calming the nerves of the people who were scared. The other guide broden wasn't very good he barely spoke and often spoke in a flat monotone like he was bored, luckily Cody more than made up for with her fun personality and wonderfully terrible puns. If you go ask for Cody and you'll have a great time.

  • Fabulous time. Everything was first class. Our guides were Allison and Wade and they made us feel extremely safe and fully informed on what to expect on each and every zip! Bent over backwards to make sure our experience was super-and it was.

  • Our experience at The Gorge was so much fun. We had Paladin and Josh for our guides and they were knowledgeable, funny, professional and very helpful. The whole experience was top notch. The equipment and course were very well maintained and both guides could answer any question they were asked. They definitely made it fun for all of us. The course is challenging because there are so many zips and the landings are a little jarring. This is due to the braking system used, but it is safe and you get used to the abrupt stops. I would only caution anyone with a bad neck or back. Other than that, I highly recommend The Gorge zip lines to anyone who likes a little adventure!

  • Wow. This was amazing. My family (total six people) and I had the most amazing experience here. From 11 to 73 years old in our group, and no one had anything less than the best time of their life. Guides Emma and Wade set everyone at ease and ensured it was fun (and funny) at every step. I was personally impressed with their professionalism, safety, and in how much they know about the local area. We had an amazing time and even learned a bit. Recommend 10/10.
