I was going to be in town for a few days and booked my time slot in advanced. I arrived early as requested and started promptly with the introduction and orientation. Kaden?? and John were our guides and the two are AMAZING!!! We moved to the practice platform and proceeded with the first zip line. As you move from line to line, the excitement just keeps building up! By default, a zip line is a very fast activity and with that speed comes braking, having to stop abruptly. Hard! For some this can make or break the experience. It’s a physical activity that can be intimidating for some. Adjusting your technic is what will help as you progress down the lines. The views are jaw dropping❤️ Pictures are taken throughout the time and a photo package can be purchased of everyone that was part of your tour once you return to the entrance. They have a wide variety of products, snacks and drinks you can take with you or enjoy in the outdoor sitting area. Don’t think of it any longer, Buy your tickets you won’t regret it!!!! Thank you for everyone at The Gorge for providing a lifelong experience to remember ⛰️☀️❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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!

It was easy to find, clean, and staffed with incredibly friendly people! My 2 guides (Faye and Wade) were fun, helpful, kind, personable, and full of tour guide required corny jokes!! Faye took great photos throughout our ziplining experience and they are priced fairly for what you get. I've been ziplining many times in many different places, but this was my first time in the NC mountains and the environment and view was beautiful!! All of the gear was in great condition and clean. The stopping system was a bit harsher than others, but after the 2nd or 3rd you get used to it and it's actually kind of fun. Some of the lines were incredibly fast and long, which was great for my adrenaline loving heart! And the repels are actually quite relaxing. 10/10 would recommend and would do again!
