Description

The Colorado Zip Line tour through the mountains of Durango, Colorado is the FIRST and LONGEST zip line in the United States.

Soaring Tree Top Adventures is remotely located on 180 private acres, completely surrounded by the mountains of the San Juan National Forest of Durango, Colorado, and is only accessible by train. This unforgettable experience begins long before you arrive at Soaring. Your Durango zip line tour starts with a first class train ride (Durango & Silverton train) through breathtaking mountain scenery to our remote Alpine location, including through remote Colorado mountain terrain untouched by the public. Visitors from all over the world come to Durango for the chance to ride the D&SNG train, which is included in your full day of adventure with Soaring Tree Top Adventures.

Guests rides in luxury in their own private, first-class train cars. You’ll even traverse along the canyon along a 200’ drop to the Animas River below. It is so spectacular that this view has been featured in numerous films, including Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

After your arrival via the historic Durango & Silverton “Narrow Gauge” Railroad, you will be greeted by the Sky Rangers who are extensively trained for your safety and will accompany you throughout the day. You will also meet the Eco Rangers, who educate guests throughout the day on Soaring’s commitment to sustainability and preservation of the rare old-growth Ponderosa forest where the Colorado zip line and tours resides.

Soaring Guests will experience 5.5 hours of zip lining! A visit to Soaring is not complete without treating your appetite as well. Included in your full-day zip line experience is a delicious four-course gourmet lunch served on a suspended platform that overlooks the Animas River. They have several delicious lunch options prepared on site by skilled chefs, including a vegetarian option and a children’s menu. The kitchen staff is also adept at handling special dietary restrictions and food allergies with advance notice.
