About

Zipline is a hiking and ziplining attraction located in Durango, Colorado, situated within the San Juan National Forest. The site features a moderate 0.8-mile trail with an elevation of 6,973 feet. The trail typically takes about 27 minutes to complete and includes a short uphill section, often described as a 15-minute hike. Parking is available at the trailhead, providing direct access to the route. The facility operates year-round, offering tours from January through December. The area is characterized by Ponderosa pines and offers views of the surrounding mountains. While primarily known for its zipline courses, including options with up to 12 lines and a 45-foot adventure tower, the ground-level hiking component provides access to these features. The moderate difficulty level suggests uneven terrain or incline, requiring sturdy footwear.
