Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Your excursion begins as you board your motorcoach for a scenic, narrated drive to the rich rainforest at Herring Cove.

This eco-adventure combines a flight over eight ziplines providing an aerial view of Bear Creek and a forest waterfall.

Upon arriving, you'll board a 4x4 all-terrain vehicle for a short drive to Canopy Chalet. Here, you'll receive a detailed safety briefing and gear up with state-of-the-art safety equipment. A short uphill hike takes you to a practice zipline and start of the course.

You'll witness panoramic ocean, forest and mountain vistas from the platforms in this lush rainforest preserve. Each successive zip ride provides a unique perspective and a new challenge. At one point, you'll be challenged as you rappel from one platform to the next as your adventure continues. At the end of the course, rappel to the ground from the last tree platform.

Back at the base camp, take the opportunity to shop at the General Store, visit the Alaska Raptor Center's exhibit and explore the on-site totem park.

Your excursion concludes with a scenic drive back to the pier.
