Experience the newly rebuilt Kohala Zipline Adventure, featuring 5 ziplines, 2 sky bridges, a zipline and bridge leading to a waterfall, and Hawaii's only spiral tree-based staircase. This is the only canopy zipline tour on Hawaii Island, offering an exciting aerial journey through a towering forest on a private nature reserve.

Located on the northern tip of the Big Island, the course is set within a fully intact 2,400-acre ahupua'a, a traditional Hawaiian land division extending from the mountains toward the sea. As you travel through the forest canopy, you will soar among mature trees, cross elevated bridges and enjoy views of the lush, stream-rich landscape that has shaped Kohala for generations.

The adventure is suitable for both first-time zipliners and experienced thrill seekers. Two certified guides accompany each tour, helping guests feel safe and comfortable while sharing information about the area's natural environment, cultural history and historic agricultural landscape.

With its combination of forest ziplines, canopy bridges, a waterfall setting and one-of-a-kind spiral staircase, the new Kohala Zipline Adventure offers a memorable way to explore one of Hawaii Island's most beautiful private nature reserves.
