| Soaring Tree Top Adventures 964 County Road 200, Durango 970.769.2357 A full day Canopy Tour Adventure for all ages. Soar over a mile of cables between tree-top platforms. Enjoy a 4-course gourmet lunch in the trees. In a remote valley of Colorado lives Soaring Tree Top Adventures, a new extreme zip line adventure and the only one of its kind in the continental United States. Soar through and above the Aspens on the highest quality stainless steel cable or zip line from platform to platform, designed to be reminiscent of an Elfin village like something out of Lord of the Rings. Touch down on the next platform and catch your breath and be assured that the platforms are attached to three-century-old Ponderosa pine trees in an unobtrusive manner that even has arborists’ attention and gives the term "tree hugger" new meaning. A Sky Ranger will be there to handle your equipment and maintain the maximum amount of safety, so Soaring can be enjoyed by thrill seekers of all ages. This adventure is also similar to a tree top tour, canopy tour, or zip line tour, but more. Tall Timber Resort, home to Soaring America, is located in the San Juan Mountains, adjacent to the San Juan National Forest. With no road access, guests arrive from Durango on the Durango-Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. The Railroad is working closely with Soaring America to provide transportation along the scenic Animas River by steam-powered train. Tall Timber Resort is taking day guests off the train for the first time to participate in this all-day activity. For those who want to experience the five-star, all-inclusive resort, packages start at a 3 day, 2 night minimum stay. Because we are accessible only by train (there is no road access) we have joined with the Durango & Silverton Railroad to provide your transportation to and from Soaring Tree Top Adventures. Visitors from all over the world come to Durango for the chance to take ride the train, so you will actually be enjoying two vacation highlights: your Tree Top Adventure and the trip on the Durango & Silverton RR!

Glenwood Canyon Zipline Adventures 888-4 ZIP-FUN Our zipline consists of a set of cables stretching over 350 feet between towers across the Colorado River. Once you're geared up in a climbing harness, helmet and gloves, you'll climb the launch tower, clip into a double wheel pulley and step off! The force of gravity will zip you down the cable, high above the river, to the landing platform on the other side. A zip back across the canyon on a second set of cables completes the exciting round-trip zip. |
