Zip Tour Adventures

Excellent zip lining experience especially with our tour guide Jake, he was so much fun and made the experience that much better! Definitely recommend doing the epic tour, such beautiful views!

Young, confident, well trained guides greet you at the ‘office’ where you make your purchase from a range of options. We chose the ‘Epic’ option which began with outfitting each of us, a training mini-​zip in the Canyons Village, a gondola ride to the top of the mountain, over a mountain valley onto the next mountain crest where the magic happens. Together, Tami & I rode the two cable Red Pine 800′ zip line. Fun and energizing, it amounted to further practice. A brief downhill hike to a chairlift to take us up to another mountain top where the 2200′ zip line started. I will say that we, as a 55 – 65 y/​o couple of flat landers, found hiking (okay walking and climbing very few steps) in the rarified air of 8300′ to be taxing. And… It was worth every gasp. What a rush. Again, side by side we careened back across the valley below back to the start of the Red Pine zip. Though we were entitled to another trip on Red Pine, it seemed like too much of an anticlimax. We rode the gondola back down the mountain and sought an adult beverage. An hour or two later we again rode the gondola up and down the mountain just to enjoy the view (without bulky equipment) as the package included an all day gondola pass. Really jazzed, we returned to our condo for a much needed nap.

Everything about this experience was amazing!
Our tour guide Phillip was super helpful, knowledgable and basically helped make our tour awesome! You have two choices, the regular or the epic zip line tour… do the epic for sure! Couldn’t have asked for a better day or guide. It was an incredible adventure.

Truly Amazing — We walked into the storefront and booked our 1.5 hour zip tour very easily — We took the 45.00 option that gave you 1 ride each on the mountains zip line —
We arrived back with our group to get our gear and meet our guide, who happened to be the Team Leader for the tours– His name was Simon — A++ He was extremely friendly and help everyone on the tour — The Lookout Zip Line was crazy — The steepest and longest zip I’ve ever been on and well worth it. Approx 2200 Ft long while you’re 8500 Ft up atop the Canyon. Everyone that was arriving after our tour and others kept saying «Highlight of our Trip» — and it was. This would be a Top 2 in my book of things to do in Park City/​Canyons when visiting.

The Canyons Resort has opened a Zip Line that is hands down the best one up in Park City!!!
The Red Pine Zip Tour adventure is a thrill, you start your adventure at the bottom of the ski resort, buy your ticket in the sports shop at the base and ride up in an enclosed gondola that seats 4 comfortable and maybe 6 in the winter.
Great views, and then get off at mid– mountain to meet your guide. After signing your life away on a simple form you get outfitted with your harness, helmut and zip line back pack. Quick walk to the training center, which is a mini zip line that is about 20 feet long and 10 feet off the ground. You learn how to hold on, go fast, slow down and stop. Then down you go. Pretty simple.
Then a short walk to the Red Pine Zip Line for two rides. After being hooked up, you and a friend race down a real zip line. This time it’s long high and a bit scary, well not really, well kinda .but boy is it a thrill. Your $ 20 gets you two rides and that’s enough for many.
BUT for $ 25 dollars more you get the deluxe package which gets you a ride on the LOOK OUT ZIP LINE. Yeah it’s a bit pricer, but worth it!
The Red Pines is similar to the Park City Resort Zip Line but the LOOK OUT is the big one up here, and worth the price. You and your guide take a short hike down a path and climb on the SHORT CUT ski lift and ride up to the other zip line. This time you are going to be really high, and going to go really fast our guide said 25 vs 40mph and your going 2200 feet vs 880 feet. I must admit is was a lot scary than the first one. My teenagers loved it, I kinda closed my eyes for part of it. Hard to admit. But had to open them up as I needed to watch the guide’s instructions to slow down and stop. You control how fast and how slow you go.
They have a back up safety way to stop if your a total Spaz, which I was not. Short walk back to the mid-​mountain which has a restaurant for lunch or snacks and then nice ride back down the gondola. This is a great adventure.
I think you need to be 10 or older, weigh between 50−260lbs and be taller than 48 inches to ride. Our guide says they are open in the winter and that when it is snowing this it is really a great ride. I think I will be down skiing but it is a great option for someone who doesn’t ski or snowboard, as you can get up the mountain and will get a both a scenic view of the mountains and the action below.
