Cabo Zip Line F.A.Q

What is zip lining?

Zip lining is the new and exciting method of experiencing beautiful and lush natural environments throughout the world. Mainly found in tropical forests, zip lining tours aim to give tourists an equally thrilling and inspiring adventure. Basically, the premise of zip lining is strapping yourself onto a harness that is connected to a cable wire, then using the force of gravity to zoom down the wire to a destination points some 100 to 200 feet away. You travel at speeds of over 30 miles per hour at times, with your feet dangling in the air, oftentimes above all kinds of plant and animal wildlife, including the tops of trees and the sides of mountains.

How long does it take?

Zip line tours will last anywhere from 2 to 2.5 hours. It depends on what the specific tour you go on. Most zip line tours feature a series of ten or more cables. Add on to the actual zip lining the time it takes for instruction and travel from one zip lining spot to the next.
