Tongass National Forest (Alpine Zipline Adventure), Juneau, Alaska. Sky Trek is an exciting zip line located in Monteverde. Your tour will start in an outdoor gondola from the ground to the heights, where you will be dropped off in an observation area for fantastic views. From this area, you'll start pedaling along a zipline that stretches through canyons and through the treetops.

The zip line at Hoonah Icy Straight Point, Alaska, takes 90 seconds to complete a vertical drop of 1,300 feet at 24 degrees. The Umauma zipline overlooks the Umauma Falls and rises 160 feet above 14 other falls. The SkyRider tour is the second largest in North America, 600 feet above the ground. The Zip Zone of the Dahilayan Adventure Park is the longest in Asia.

It is located in Bukidnon, Philippines. Zip Zone dual transport cables are 840 meters long point-to-point, with an elevation drop of 100 meters and speeds of between 60 and 100 kmph. The patented ZipRider zipline, which is called “zipline without sweating and without sweating”, offers thrill seekers the opportunity to sit back in a chair and enjoy the view. ZipRider, a franchise with 21 outposts around the world, stands out for its simplicity, since passengers are not required to wear helmets, no equipment is put on them before the race and they are not trained before the flight.

Icy Strait Point, the company's leader as the largest and arguably the most exciting ZipRider, has six 5,495-foot zip lines that descend 1,320 feet. Speeds can reach up to 65 miles per hour when groups of six people race to the base, 300 feet above the Alaskan tundra. THE LONGEST ZIP LINE in the world is Jebel Jais Flight, located in the mountainous desert of Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates. This Guinness World Record holder is 1.76 miles long (31 soccer fields) and can reach a speed of 93 miles per hour.

The Sicilian zip line is located in the commune of San Mauro Castelverde, in the Parco delle Madonie, a UNESCO geopark. Explore the world's longest zipline, the incredible zipline by bike, the zipline that crosses the Jaguar Cave, the spectacular Eifel Tower zipline and much more.
