creeper trail zipline

Before embarking on our bike trip downhill to Damascus, we thought we'd try out the Creeper Trail Zipline. Only one of us had been on a zipline before so there were a few anxious moments before the first leg of the 4 ziplines. There was a brief orientation on the equipment before climbing the stairs to the first take off platform. Once we made it to the first stage, one guide demonstrated the basics on ziplining. He then took off. When he landed, a second guide hooked us up one at a time and then we got to take off.The first stage was the short and easy. Each segment got a little more exciting. The 4th stage was a real blast, longer and faster than the others.This course was a lot of fun for beginners and (slightly) experienced zipliners.We highly recommend trying this before you ride down the VA Creeper Trail back to Damascus.

Now there's more to do than just ride your bike down the Virginia Creeper Trail! When starting or ending in Whitetop, check out the NEW Creeper Trail Zipline! This is a wonderful and exciting addition to the Creeper Trail area! The Zipline park was designed with safety and fun in mind. The park is co-owned and designed by Chuck who was the Training Director at one of the larger ziplines in the Boone, NC area. All of the staff are well trained, courteous, and encourage participants to have a great time "flying" with them! The current course consists of four lines with the last being the longest and fastest. My family has now been with two different sets of visitors (our youngest son and our two eldest Grand-children) and rode the lines twice during each visit. Don't think you can't do it! Push yourself, sit down in your sling, and simply slide off into the beautiful VA skyways! An AFFORDABLE MUST for Creeper Trail riders.
