You will get very wet and this is only recommended for those with rafting experience or for the very adventurous. Minimum age is 12 years old with rafting experience.

The tour does require a short hike up to the first platform so some measure of fitness is required, as well as closed toe shoes. Zip line participants must weigh between 70 and 250 lbs. The tour lasts for approximately 2 hours. There will be enough time for you to grab a quick lunch and then head south (about 25 minutes) to check in at Three Rivers Resort for rafting.
