Snow King Mountain’s ZipTour is an extreme activity that involves heights of over 100 feet off the ground and speeds over 30 mph. The tour involves hiking over rough terrain, a gondola ride, wearing a harness and helmet, and controlling your own speed on the zip line. If you are uncomfortable with any of these situations we suggest you try our other summer activities on the mountain. The tour itself will take roughly two hours due to the extensive safety training involved and the time to walk to the gondola and ride up the mountain.

The staff at Snow King Mountain Resort are not medically qualified and are not in a position to assess the capacity of participants with pre-existing medical conditions to ride the ziplines. It remains your responsibility to undertake such an assessment prior to taking the tour. You may wish to contact your doctor for further advice. Individuals who are pregnant or may be pregnant should not ride the Zip Line. The harness must be adjusted snugly around the waist area, not hips, and the braking process can create a sudden and unexpected jolt to the rider if they do not slow down and stop at the designated unloading point. Persons who have recently had surgery or who suffer from chronic back/neck and/or spine problems are strongly advised to not take part in the ride. We are not medical experts and therefore suggest that you seek advice from your doctor on medical matters. If you decide to proceed, you do so with the full knowledge that the zip line tour may incur risks to an unborn child and may complicate pre existing medical conditions.

Season Pass holders will receive 20% off the ZipTour for themselves. Reservations can only be made over the phone or in person and the current season pass must be shown at the time of check-in.

Dogs are welcome at Snow King Mountain Resort but must be supervised and remain on a leash at all times. You must clean up after your dog while on Resort property. However, your dog cannot accompany you on the ZipTour and dogs are not permitted on the lifts. During the winter sports season, dogs are not allowed on any snow surface.

Yes, you may bring your camera or video recorder. However, you may not use the equipment anytime you are suspended on a zip line with the exception of a GoPro that is mounted in a secure way that does not interfere with the zip line, trolley or harness and is hands free.

The Zip Tour trolley is the primary piece of equipment you will be carrying and/or suspended from throughout the duration of the tour. The trolley weighs approximately 10 lbs. When not in use suspending you from the zip line cable, you will carry it in a backpack specifically designed for it. Depending on the tour, you can expect to carry/wear the backpack for 2-3 hours. This means you will carry it from the training area to the gondola (about a 10 min walk) and while you walk to and wait your turn to zip each line.

Guidelines are as follows:

• Ages 12-15 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
• Zip Tour riders must be willing and able to operate the equipment on their own as each ZipTour rider will ride each line independently.
• Accompanying parent/guardian can, and in some cases will, be required to ride on the line next to the minor but will be on a separate line.
• For youth ages 12 – 17, a parent must sign a waiver which may be completed online or in person.

All participants must complete a Release of Liability prior to beginning the adventure. A signature from a parent/guardian is required for all participants under the age of 18. Liability releases can be completed online as well as on most mobile devices once you arrive at Snow King Mountain Resort.   Liability Waiver

It is required that you arrive 30 minutes prior to your scheduled Zip Tour. As the ZipTour can be sold out on any day, it is important to arrive on time. There are no refunds if you arrive late and miss your session, or cancel within 24 hours of a scheduled tour. We will attempt to put you into a later time slot if available but there is no guarantee. Factor in extra time for driving to Snow King Mountain Resort, parking, getting to the Zip Tour Office, completing the necessary paperwork, visiting our retail store and making use of our outlets.
