Life is better when You Zipline

Zipline/Canopy tours started about 20 years ago. Originating in Costa Rica, it introduced tourists to a unique way of communing with nature by traveling through the forest canopy on cables strung from anchor to anchor. Combining the excitement of the ride high in the trees with education regarding habitat, wildlife and history of the area, Canopy Tours became an instant success. Out of this forest adventure, in the past two years has sprung a new hybrid of this concept called Ziplining.

Basically, it has been adapted for the world market to allow the thrilling experience of flying through the trees, over streams and valleys with higher speeds and greater elevation changes.

The Skyline zipline system used is fully engineered and certified. Sky Safari is the safest cable ride system in the world because it utilizes a permanent rock anchor system rather than anchoring cables into trees. The cables used are also 3 times the thickness of conventional zip line systems.

Highest point is 250 feet and the lowest is 10 feet. The lower cables give a greater sense of speed.

Our full Skyline tour runs 2 to 3 hours. This includes the shuttle from Basseterre to our Wingfield Estate Base, harnessing in, a safety orientation and the activity.

Our age limit is 6yrs of age incorporated with a weight minimum of 60 lbs to partake. Our maximum weight capacity is 275 lbs.
