The elevated track winds you through more than a mile of loops, curves and hair-pin curves at speeds up to 30 mph. Just like your favorite roller coaster - but with the refreshing mountain scenery of Park City. Ever wished you could fly? Soar above the tree tops as our Zip Lines propel you 110 feet above Park City Mountain Resort's ski runs at speeds up to 45 miles per hour.

Kids and adults must be 42" tall, but no weight minimum. And it starts and ends at the same location, so you can ride again and again and again. Zip Lines are subject to early closures for reasons including wind, temperature, etc. With the Legacy Launcher's four trampolines it's easy to bounce, flip and fly. Don't worry; each trampoline is equipped with a safety harness. It is the perfect place to try out your tricks, surrounded by mountain views. Don't look down until you reach the top! This is the chance to test your big wall climbing skills, (in a safety climbing harness), while being assisted by trained Climbing Wall attendants. You will conquer this mountain!
