The Experience

Before You Go

Arrive 30 minutes early

Check-in and harnessing are thorough; arriving early ensures time for waivers and gear fitting.

Wear closed-toe shoes with grip

Expect short climbs and ladder sections—trail runners or hiking shoes work best.

Layer for wind and shade

Temperatures can be cooler in the trees even on sunny days; a light windproof layer is helpful.

Secure small cameras

Bring a chest or helmet mount for action cams; loose items aren’t allowed on ziplines.

Hidden Gems

  • Nearby interpretive trails that explain the unique glacial geology of Cypress Hills

Conservation Note

The park emphasizes low-impact recreation—stay on trails, avoid disturbing vegetation, and pack out all waste to protect sensitive highland habitats.

Cypress Hills stands higher than surrounding prairie because of glacial deposits; the area has been a meeting and hunting ground for Indigenous peoples and later a travel corridor for settlers.
