Canopy Tours

Zip lines entertain the whole family, from kids all the way up to the older set. This high-flying adventure is exciting, but not too scary, even if you're afraid of heights or a first-timer.

While you're on the zip line, take in the peaceful smell of the surrounding earth and the splendor provided by cliff-side views from atop the New River Gorge. You'll see scenic foliage and gorgeous mountains while suspended midair along ACE's private rock cliffs. And feel the breeze as the air passes over you lightly and sunlight reflects and bounces off the tree leaves.

You'll sail effortlessly through the air, thanks to the very safe gravity brake system on our zip lines. Take a few steps and glide through the treetops, coming to a hands-free stop with no effort on your part. Speeds reach an average 35 miles per hour, but each zip is different and personal weight affects your speed.

If you'd like a shorter tour, you can choose just one or a few of the zip lines, although we hope you'll stay until the end for ACE's highest, fastest zip line. It's a blast!
