Kingkong Smile Zipline Chiang Mai: Asia's Longest & Highest 3,600m Zipline Adventure
Ride Asia’s longest and highest zipline across Chiang Mai’s forested ridgelines. This 3,600‑meter course combines long cable runs, suspended bridges and spiral platforms—perfect for travelers who want a calculated adrenaline rush and scenic views of northern Thailand.
The Experience
Before You Go
Book morning departures
Early slots are cooler, often clearer, and reduce the chance of afternoon monsoon showers interrupting your run.
Secure your phone
Either tether your camera to your harness or leave valuables with staff—wind and speed make loose items disappear quickly.
Mind the weight and health limits
The operator enforces a 110 kg max and age/height limits; those with back, heart or pregnancy concerns should not participate.
Wear grippy closed‑toe shoes
Platforms and spiral staircases can be slippery; sturdy footwear improves control at launch and landing.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Mae Sa Waterfall for a post‑ride swim and shaded picnic area
- •Local hill‑tribe coffee stands near the route—try Arabica grown on the ridges
Wildlife
- •White‑handed gibbon (possible sounds at dawn)
- •Great hornbill and other canopy birds
Conservation Note
Operators emphasize minimal‑impact construction on platforms and encourage guests not to feed or approach wildlife; staying on marked routes keeps erosion and disturbance down.
The route crosses foothills historically used by Lanna traders and teak loggers; modern adventure operators repurposed old paths into canopy tourism.
Photographer's Notes
- • Highest launch platform looking down the longest line
