This was a fun and exciting experience! Our guides were John and Emily and they did a fantastic job! We had ziplined before, but our daughter never was able to get enough speed to make the end of the line. At the Gorge she didn't have that problem at all! Between the angle and build up of speed she made the end of every line! The rappels caused our daughter a little stress, but Emily did a great job helping her face her fear and realize how safe and fun it was!

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!

We were a group of 8 adults - old and young - and we had a great time with Jerry, Krista, and Chloe! Most of us had zipped and rappelled before but these lines, were higher, faster, and more scenic which made them lots of fun. The rappels were cool too. We got to do various poses for pictures on the way down. All of our pictures turned out great - fair price too. Our guides kept us safe and entertained all day. Highly recommend!

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!
