Excursion Overview

Zipline through the trees of the Tongass National Forest!

Experience the thrill of flying through the treetops on a Juneau zipline tour through the Tongass National Rainforest! This exciting adventure lets you take in breathtaking rainforest views from above as you zip between treehouse platforms on an exhilarating alpine course.

Your journey begins with a scenic drive to Eaglecrest Ski Area on Douglas Island, which transforms into a zipline course in the summer. After gearing up and a brief safety orientation, you'll start with a practice run before zipping through the trees. Each zipline lands you at a treehouse platform, where you can soak in the stunning scenery and listen to your guide’s stories about the area. The adventure doesn’t stop there—toward the end, you’ll cross a suspension bridge over a salmon stream and even try your hand at ax-throwing!

Afterward, enjoy a slideshow of your adventure and shop for local souvenirs. This action-packed tour offers fun for all ages, making it an unforgettable experience!

The zips weren't as long or as numerous as others that we've done, but it was still a fun time in a gorgeous setting. Our guides were great and knowledgeable about the area.

We had a fantastic time ziplining with Alpine Zipline Adventure. It was just the right amount of thrill mixed with beautiful nature. I also felt very safe with the crew here. The equipment was clearly well maintained and the course was so fun. We even had some tasty hot tea at the end.
