Zip Line Tours and Challenge Courses

Published: 23/09/2009 by Zipline Directory

Because zip line tours involve overcoming fears and physical challenges, they are excellent activities for team-building exercises and corporate retreats. In addition to being a fun experience, they can also bond family members, team members, and co-workers. Many tours specialize in catering to groups and corporate retreats, as well.

Another element often combined with zip line tours is challenge ropes courses. These courses differ from place to place, but they typically offer high and low ropes challenges which require balance, strength, patience, and more. Examples of ropes course obstacles include balancing on tire swings and a rope bridge. Ropes obstacles often require teamwork for each member to complete the course, which is the main reason that they are popular activities for teams and corporations.

Located near Ketchikan, Alaska, Southeast Exposure features a zip line tour combined with a ropes course. The course includes eight different challenges of both high and low ropes and a zip line that surrounds the course. The Rainforest Ropes and Canopy Zipline takes approximately three and a half hours to complete. This activity is great for family vacations.

One Day Adventure in Glendale, Arizona caters to corporate retreats and team building exercises. They offer a zip line event that can be accompanied by hiking and ropes course challenge obstacles. The zip line ride alone takes approximately three and a half hours.

From extreme weekend adventures to mornings or afternoons of team-building fun, a zip line tour is a great to bond with family members, coworkers, and team members.
