The experience

You start at Vertical Illusions in Wisconsin Dells, where the guide fits you with gear and loads you into a shuttle headed to Chimney Rock Park. The 3-hour experience runs from gear-up to gear-down, so plan the rest of your day around that window. A scenic hike takes you to the summit first, where your guide talks through the park's wildlife and history before you clip in.

The 10 ziplines string you through the Aspen Grove canopy and out over Friendship Lake Canyon, with the longest and fastest lines in the Midwest reserved for Peak 2. You're flying off cliffs and across open air between each stop, not watching from below. Sunset Cliff closes out the run with panoramic views across the landscape.

Photos are included, so you leave with proof of the ride. The guide is live and speaks English, and children from age 5 can join if they meet the moderate fitness requirement. Public transportation options are available near the meeting point if you're not driving.

What’s included

• Admission to Chimney Rock Park.
