Hocking
Hills is the home of Ohio's first zipline adventure attraction. Visitors can
spend 3 tempting gravity while gliding along the Hocking Hills Canopy
Tours attraction. USA Today ranked the Hocking Hills Canopy Tours as
a hot new attraction in Ohio. Visitors to the Canopy Tour Adventures can explore the treetops during a trip above caves and rock
cliffs. While some may consider a zipline ride only slightly more exciting than
Cedar Point's Jr. Gemini roller coaster others find a zipline ride the thrill of
a life time. The Hocking Hills Canopy Tours opened in the fall of 2008 and has been growing in popularity since the first zipliner donned a safety harness. Zipliners are suspended on a network of cables, getting a bird's eye view of the Hocking River, native wildlife, plants, and rocks. Until Ohio's newest zipline, Ozone Zipline Adventure in Warren County, opened earlier this year the Hocking Hills Canopy Tours was the only zipline in Ohio. Go and enjoy the fun! The Hocking Peaks Adventure Park zip line site is easy to find. It is located on State Route 674 just a couple of miles past the Visitors Center. New in 2012 is Valley Zipline Tours. Valley Zipline Tours is located in near the entrance of the beautiful Hocking Hills near Sugar Grove. Their goal is to bring that beauty and history to you in a way that is not only fun and exciting, but also educational. Their farm has been involved in conservation and education since 2009. They are looking forward to showing off the land on the newest addition the Valley Zipline Tours. We have poured our heart and soul into building what is now the largest course in Ohio. New in 2013 is Soaring Cliffs. Soaring Cliffs offers a zip line experience unlike any other in the Hocking Hills. The lines are set over a natural gorge complete with sandstone rock formations, wildlife, and a seasonal waterfall. Soaring Cliffs is a member of ACCT (Association for Challenge Course Technology) and the Ohio Zip Line Association. Through the Ohio Zip Line Association, Soaring Cliffs is working with the Department of Agriculture Amusement Ride Division to help set the standards of construction and maintenance for zip line courses throughout the State of Ohio.
