Kauai's most popular zipline experience, set on the lush slopes above Poipu on the South Shore. Seven lines ranging from 200 to 3,200 feet long — including the longest zipline in Hawaii — with sweeping views of the ocean, the Hoary Head Mountains, and the green valleys of Koloa. Side-by-side lines let you fly with a friend.
Zip through the lush valleys of Kauai's North Shore on a working cattle ranch, with five lines and a suspension bridge offering dramatic views of the Hanalei Valley and Na Pali Mountains. The tour ends with a swim in a private waterfall pool — one of the most memorable finales of any zipline tour in Hawaii.
Kipu Ranch is one of Kauai's most storied properties — a 3,000-acre working cattle ranch that has served as a filming location for Jurassic Park, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Zip through the ranch's dramatic landscape on eight lines with views of the Haupu Ridge and the Huleia River valley.
Book the entire zipline course for your group — no strangers, no waiting. Private tours can be combined with hiking, waterfall swims, or a picnic lunch on the ranch. Ideal for families, corporate groups, and special occasions. Available at Koloa, Princeville Ranch, and Kipu Ranch.

Which Kauai zipline has the best views?
Koloa Zipline offers the best ocean views from the South Shore, while Princeville Ranch gives you dramatic North Shore valley and Na Pali Mountain views. Kipu Ranch has the most dramatic landscape and the famous Jurassic Park connection. All three are exceptional — it depends on which part of the island you prefer.
Do I need prior experience to go ziplining?
No experience needed. All guests receive a full safety briefing and equipment fitting before the first line. Guides are with you every step of the way. Most people are nervous before the first line and hooked after it.
Are there weight or age restrictions?
Most Kauai zipline operators require guests to weigh between 70 and 250 lbs and be at least 7–10 years old. Some courses have different limits. Call us and we'll match you with the right operator for your group.
What should I wear?
Closed-toe shoes are required on all zipline tours — no sandals or flip-flops. Wear comfortable athletic or outdoor clothing. Avoid loose jewelry, scarves, or anything that could catch on equipment.
What if it rains?
Kauai is the wettest island in Hawaii, and light rain is common — it makes the valleys even more lush and beautiful. Most tours operate in light rain. Tours are cancelled only in cases of lightning or severe weather, and you'll receive a full refund or reschedule.
