The Experience
Before You Go

Sturdy footwear protects your feet for ATVs, trail approaches to ziplines, and during horseback transitions.

ATV and riding weight limits apply (ATV ~300 lbs; horse ~230 lbs; zipline ~265 lbs) and a driver's license/photo ID is required for ATV riders.
Hydrate and use reef‑safe sunscreen
