Mt. McKinley Excursions

Your exciting zip line adventure begins with a safety briefing session. Your guide will lead you on a short hike to the course entrance where you will climb a staircase up to the first zip line launch platform. You will have a chance to cross a suspension bridge to view the dramatic vistas of the Alaska Range, the foot of the Ruth Glacier, and the braided Chulitna River valley. The scenery from this view point offers ample opportunity for photographs. Each platform will offer ever changing views of the mountain vistas. The final and longest zip line of the tour will span close to six hundred feet over a beautiful glacial kettle pond.
