Talkeetna: Zipline Tour – Susitna Valley, Alaska

EXPERIENCE

Experience exciting ziplines, suspension bridges, a rappel, and a spiral staircase on this enchanting tour! Your zipline adventure begins at our office in Talkeetna. Check in with our friendly local staff and board the DZT shuttle for a scenic three-mile drive to the forested ridges above the mighty Susitna River Valley. Upon arrival at our course, you will meet your certified guides and get outfitted in top-quality gear. Then you head for zipline ground school to receive a basic orientation.
The pace of the three-hour tour is varied, mixing speed and excitement as you zip through the beautiful northern boreal forest, with time to pause and gaze out from viewing platforms and along walks across the long aerial bridges that take in Denali and the expanse of the Alaska Range.
Your guides will share educational moments about the boreal forest and topographical features including ridges, ravines, kettle ponds, and the braided Chulitna and Susitna valleys. The history of Talkeetna runs deep and includes flying and mountaineering in the Alaska Range, gold mining and the quirky local characters. Each guide has their own personal story and who knows what Alaskan tidbits you will be treated to?!
There will be numerous opportunities to glimpse the mountain vistas from the zipline, viewing platforms and suspended sky bridges, allowing ample time for picture taking. There are plenty of photo opportunities ask us about it!
The final and longest zip of the tour will span close to 600 feet with most of the ride suspended over our Reflection Pond landing on the final platform six feet off the ground with an easy stair exit and a short drive back to downtown Talkeetna.
