About this tour
Trade the ground for sweeping Arkansas River views on a Cañon City Extreme Zipline Tour. This three-hour adventure begins with a safety orientation and ground-school instruction, giving you a chance to learn the basics before taking to the lines.
Fly across 11 ziplines, including a line described as the fastest in North America, with speeds reaching up to 1,700 feet. Mountain vistas open around you as you make your way through the course. The finale is a side-by-side 1,200-foot racing line that lands at a seven-story tower. Choose a Flightline Free Fall, dropping 30 feet before the system lowers you, or a True Blue belay for a controlled descent. The course and safety equipment are designed to support a carefully prepared ride, while guides explain the skills you need along the way.
Participants must meet the 70–250 lb weight requirement and be able to manage their speed and move along the cable if needed. Find your favorite finish and take in the views on a Cañon City Extreme Zipline Tour above the Arkansas River.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 5.00 from 7 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Cañon City
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.5.
