You can go on a zip line that goes up to 60 MPH! Want to know where?

You can go on a zip line that goes up to 60 MPH! Want to know where?

It's not just a ride, it's a great tour on the way up!




5,330 feet long, 1,300 foot vertical drop, 60 mph maximum speed, 300 feet highest point from ground, 1.5 minute ride time!




If you are ever planning on going to Alaska (or you live there already) ZipRider is for you. Unlike anything you've seen before the ZipRider cable ride at Icy Strait Point is truly a once in a lifetime experience.




The adventure begins when you board a bus for the ride to the top the mountain. The driver will narrate as you pass through the village of Hoonah and then up the mountainside.




Once on top you will take a short walk to the launching area. At 1,300 feet above sea level you will sit into a special harness seat and await your launch.




Six guests launch at once, and it is a race to the bottom! 3, 2, 1 and you're off, accelerating to 60 mph as you pass 300 feet above the treetops !
