The Experience

The ATV is already climbing before you've finished adjusting your harness. Two guides are running the show—checking clips, cracking jokes, pointing out where the bald eagles nest—and the vehicle pitches uphill through dense coastal temperate rainforest on 100 acres just outside Victoria. Ten minutes of that, and you're at the top of the course, looking down at the canopy you're about to fly over. The longest line is 1,000 feet. You'll hit 40 mph on it.

Seven ziplines branch out from there, each one a different angle and distance—the shortest around 150 feet, the longest the one that makes your stomach drop. The suspension bridge is 100 feet of nothing between two platforms, which sounds scarier than it is once you're on it. Your guides have done this hundreds of times; they're not rushing you, and they know exactly what to say when someone's hands are shaking on the grip. The whole Victoria zipline tour runs about two hours, and the views don't stop—ocean, mountains, the rainforest canopy close enough to see the moss on the branches.

Weather doesn't shut it down. Rain, wind, the occasional fog rolling in off the strait—the tour operates anyway, which means you dress for it and go. Closed-toe shoes are non-negotiable; the guides will turn you around if you show up in sandals. You need to weigh between 60 and 275 pounds, and if you're under 19, a parent or guardian signs the waiver with you at check-in. Show up 20 minutes early so there's no rush through the paperwork.

What’s included

Your tour includes a 10-minute ATV ride to the top of the course, eight ziplines ranging from 150 to 1,000 feet, a 100-foot suspension bridge crossing, all safety equipment, and two professionally trained guides who handle setup and offer insight into the local rainforest, wildlife, and West Coast history. The entire experience lasts about 2 hours.
