LONGEST and HIGHEST Zipline in Idaho!

This is the experience I had last Fall. Idaho is not too far from where I live, so I travel there almost every month, and this time I had an opportunity to try zip lining in Coeur d'Alene. The whole zip lining experience took us about two and a half hours and it costs $100 per person. It started with a fast quad shuttle ride up the mountain with drifty turns. Then, we climbed the tree where our first zip line station was waiting for us. During whole trip, we experienced 7 high lines (half of them were really long) and 3 cool rope bridges. The longest zip line was around 1600 feet.


This is one of the tree stops..

One of the rope bridges... this one is not the longest one.

I think it can be a great experience for everyone, even if you are scared of heights. This is probably the safest thing to do in the air and still get adrenalin and have a great time. I really recommend zip lining while travelling because this way you can see the best views!

Looks kind of fun! 2 and a half hours sounds pretty long for some ziplines. Can imagine there was a decent amount of walking involved as well(?) Thanks for the share.

no, not really. walking was about 5 minutes. We had a lot of people in our group, so we had to wait for everyone . 7 zip lines and 3 rope bridges.

longest bridge took about 5 minutes to walk. it was very wiggly and I tried to take a picture on it lol

That explains the 2 and a half hours ;). Those hanging bridge can wiggle a lot indeed.

That looks so fun! Is that close to Boise?

no, about 8 hours away. This zip line experience was somewhere in Coeur d'Alene or near by. We payed for it at Coeur d'Alene Mall, but then we had to drive somewhere for another 20 minutes .

Nice pictures. Far to high for me.

You are brave

actually it wasn't scary even a little bit, which was very surprising because I am afraid of heights. I felt really safe there.

Wow. Looks like a scene from Star Wars Return of The Jedi (Endor)

How much did it cost?

Sorry, forgot to mention it . It was $100 per person

I would be too afraid to do the zipline. we have one locally and I have not been yet!

you should try :) it might look scary, but really it isn't .
