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!

We had an excellent time zip lining as a bachelorette activity!! John and Connor were very helpful and fun, and took great pics of everyone. The tour is just intense enough to actually be cool but not scary. It’s nice and long too so you get your money’s worth!

Amazing adventure! Alan and Paladin were fantastic guides- they explained everything clearly, kept the mood light and fun while keeping safety the priority!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and our guides made it memorable from start to finish-even with the ‘dad’ jokes! Thank you Alan and Paladin for helping create a great memory for our father/daughter adventure wknd.

I've been to The Gorge twice and each time was a great experience. This most recent visit we had Veto and Emma as guides and they were so knowledgeable and paid close to to attention, I felt very safe with them. They both were friendly, caring, and thoughtful. I definitely would go back to The Gorge. Great experience always

KEMBERLY
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!

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!
