Smoky Mountain Ziplines

Yes, 275 lbs but I would check to confirm.

Our current restrictions require canopy tour participants to be at least 8 years of age and weigh a minimum of 60 pounds or more to go on our tour. We also have a 275 pound maximum weight limit. I am currently unaware of any course in the area that rides 3 year olds although if Im not mistaken, Wears Valley Ziplines takes children ages 5 to 7 years of age tandem with staff. Thank you for your question and have a great evening! Sincerely Bodhi SMZ Guide Director

There are 7 lines, around 4200 of 4500 ft. Of Cable length, Lines can go up to 800ft. And can reach 150ft in height!!! They can go up to 25 mph....

The new season starts in March 2022. W inflation cost may or may not go up.

You can't double up but if he is willing to try they have great guides. We had a mom and son who was afraid at first and all of us were patient and encouraging to them. By the end he wanted to be first and loved it. Some of the "guide " comments on here are a bit rude. Go and talk to them, let him watch the video and make your decision that way.

Under 10 it's not recommended

We Paid $84 per person.

Around 80 dollars per person . Great time .

I believe there were small stairs to get into the office and a few stairs from one zip line to another in some areas.

No age limit.

I have a bad shoulder and I did it didn't hurt me at all I think she would in joy it

For Safety reasons they don't offer A Tandem option!

Before Covid, they used to have a cameraman, but I don't believe they have one right now. They do give special pouches so you can take your phone with you and not risk dropping it.

If he is scared he can go with a guide or you could try a smaller zip course. Five oaks has a fun park and it goes fast. Nothing crazy for new people.

Bodhi, the guide director, here and I hope this finds you well. I also apologize for the delay in communication as we coming out of our winter hibernation. We close seasonally after New years day weekend until March 1st due to the seasonality of our area and winter weather. We are as of today back to our normal operating schedule at this time and will have the phones manned seven days a week from 9am to 5pm with tours being scheduled throughout most days. I could not find your name attached to a reservation in our system but if you will, please find my direct line at 865-679-9103 and I will be more than happy to assist you with cancelations or rebookings. Thank you for your question and have a great day!

I believe it's 8 years older or 70lbs

Dear Christi, Bodhi here and I hope this finds you well. We do rent our own gopros in house, but we actuallly started doing that only because we got into the habit of carrying extra gopro clips on hand for our guests that had forgotten or misplaced their own. We provide pouches for guests to bring their own phones or small cameras and in regards to gopros we strongly encourage you to bring your own along. Chest strapped cameras normally don't function well due to interference with the riding straps and we strongly discourage the selfie sticks, but we will absolutely provide you with one of our helmets that already has the mounts attached so that you can bring your own camera or gopro at no extra charge. If you have any other questions please feel free to call us at 865-429-9004. Thank you for your questions and interest and have a great day! Sincerely Bodhi

Dear Kristen, Bodhi here and I hope this finds you well. We do currently have age and weight restrictions of a recommended minimum age of 8 years old and required weight restrictions of a minimum of 60 pounds and maximum of 275 pounds. If you have any other questions please feel free to reach out to us at 865-429-9004. Have a great day! Sincerely Bodhi

Dear Lisa, Bodhi here and I hope this finds you well. At our location we offer a seven line canopy tour that does include a 30' controlled descent (think guide/device controlled rappel as opposed to guest operated) and a ride to and from our canopy tour area in a M35a3 deuce and a half. On our adventure the controlled descent and truck ride aren't really voluntary if I'm being honest. Our canopy tour area is located about a mile away from and 400' higher than our base camp. You'll be thanking the truck by the time you get to the top. As for the controlled descent it is an engineered system designed for vertical travel from one of our landing platforms to a lower sending platform. We do have rescue kits and the training to bypass the controlled descent in emergency situations, but the best way down is to use the controlled descent device. There are other tours in our area that operate without a controlled descent, but I think you'll like ours and it. Sincerely Bodhi

Dear Erik, Bodhi here and I hope this finds you well. Our current weight limits are a 60 pound minimum weight limit and a 275 pound maximum weight limit. These weight limits are based more on the braking system and it's manufacturer's recommendation than what the zipline and cables will actually hold. As per ASTM amusement device standards being adopted and applied to ziplines by the state of Tennessee, our insurance company's policies, and professional responsibility from our side to uphold our declared policies, at this point in time, we would not be able to accommodate you on our tour. We do have free drinks at our facility for our zippers and guests waiting on our zippers. I also know that there is a Soaring Eagle zipline attraction on the Pigeon Forge Parkway next to Fantasy Golf that is a dual seater "ziplinish" system that has a two person maximum weight of 550 pounds, which is a good option and a fun ride. Sincerely Bodhi SMZ Guide Director

As long as you can stand and walk without the chair, I don't see why not. If you are wheelchair bound then I would say no. There's parts where you have to climb stairs and walk short distances.

275lbs

Not very fast at all. The guides are very good & very safe. You will feel very comfortable I promise. The views are amazing from up in the trees

Show them you are military when you go in....you will receive a discount...Not sure about Seniors.

Yes, they sure do

Hey Julia, as the other community here has already done a wonderful job answering, I thought I would just summarize things a little. The current adventure we offer is seven lines plus a 30' controlled descent, traversing about 4200' of cable in all. Although we do run tours with as little as one guest, ziplining is generally more fun as a group activity. Because of this and the fact that a full tour for us is 8 guests, we like to suggest allowing up to two hours for their adventure on the mountain. Under normal conditions a full tour will finish in about an hour and a half up to the full two hours depending on several factors including how well the guests respond to our guide's corny jokes. We also require a 30 minute early arrival prior to your tour start time in order to allow for signing our waivers and harnessing. I hope this information has been helpful and that you have a great day! Sincerely Bodhi

Dear Wendy, as Deborah mentioned that is a wonderful question for your doctor. Personally, Neither myself or any of my staff are trained, medical professionals qualified to give proper guidance and decision making ability in regards to those areas of medical concern. Ziplining should never be considered a "safe" activity. In reality, it it is an inherently risky, sports like activity undertaken at our location for amusement in an "at height" outdoor environment and exposed to the associated elements and risks therein. Ziplining with pre-existing medical conditions, or after undergoing certain medical procedures could definitely introduce increased risks and the chance of harmful or potentially fatal results. To reiterate, I am not a medical professional and as such cannot make a decision regarding your personal health, but if you're doctor thinks some mountain views and fresh air would be good for you, then give us a call today. Thank you for your question.

Hi Renee, Bodhi here and I hope this finds you well. Our current weight limits are a minimum age and weight requirement of 8 years of age and weight of 60 pounds, and a maximum weight of 275 pounds. As additional considerations, the harness must fit the wearer appropriately and the braking systems we use are custom tuned to operate best within those weight limits. There is redundancy built into many zipline structural systems, and those operating within the state of Tennessee are mandated to comply with the ASTM standards for amusement devices including annual inspection to either the ASTM or ACCT set of standards. ACCT actually requires a safety of factor of 5 for 1/2" cable installations We do operate primarily on the honor system, but there is a scale beside the counter if a guest is concerned about someone weighing the minimum and maximum requirements. Thank you for your question.

I went yesterday and It was $75 per person. But, after that, you get a frequent zipper card, so when you revisit,(i.e, tomorrow, next year, whenever) it's only $60. per person.
