Kipu Falls Zipline Trek

Description:

• Soar on zip lines through the forest canopy high above rivers and waterfalls. Hike, swim, and rope swing into a deep-water pond at the base of a mountain stream waterfall. Enjoy learning about the ecology, natural history, culture, folklore, and legends of Kauai!

  The four Zip lines are designed and operated according to the highest safety standards as set by the ACCT (Association for Challenge Course Technology). Each of them is unique and provides a magnificent setting, such as Kipu Ranch, a 4000 acre (1600 sq. km) piece of paradise that has long been closed to the public. The lands run from the tall mountaintops of the jagged Hoary Head Range, through pastoral meadows and down to the edge of a lazy jungle stream. You'll travel on private foot trails winding through exotic forests to reach stunning canyons and waterfalls.

  After a safety briefing conducted by one of your certified guides, you'll be issued your state-of-the-art safety and climbing gear and set out to travel over, under, around and through the gorgeous slot canyon. You'll go top to bottom through the forest canopy just about every fun way you can imagine: zip lines, elevated walkways,suspension bridges and even the new and innovative Zippel line TM, that combines the use of rappelling gear with ziplining. And you'll really get a kick out of our new tandem zipline as you and your partner ride side-by-side through the tree tops and over waterfalls. Hooting, hollering, and ear-to-ear grins seem to be standard operating procedure!
  
  After a short hike through the jungle, you'll arrive at the beautiful Kipu Falls for an exciting swim and various adrenaline filled rope swings. Once there, the more adventurous participants will be jumping into swimming holes at the base of waterfalls cascading over black lava rock cliffs and swinging on ropes tied to tree branches high above the mountain pools. Others will simply relax and enjoy the quiet beauty!
