Our 2-Mile Wahoo Ziplines Course Layout
Wahoo Ziplines features a robust 6-line course spanning nearly 2 full miles of interconnected mountain cables. Our layout smoothly progresses from lower canopy lines starting around 40 feet high up to scenic lines that glide 250 feet above the forest floor, reaching exciting speeds up to 40 mph.
Our Commitment to Hands-Free Safety
Providing a secure and stress-free adventure near Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg is our top focus. We eliminate the common anxiety of manual braking by equipping our entire course with fully automated, speed-regulated mechanical trolleys. From fitting your harness and helmet to teaching you how to ride, clipping you onto the cable, and safely catching you at the next platform—our professional guides do 100% of the work. You don’t need to do anything but relax, take in the views, and let us deliver the ultimate experience.
Tennessee’s Original Zipline Canopy Tour
Operating since 2008, Wahoo Ziplines stands as an established pioneer of commercial canopy tours in the Great Smoky Mountains. As a long-standing, locally owned Sevierville outpost, we have safely welcomed families, couples, and multi-generational groups to our private mountain ridge for nearly two decades. We take immense pride in our deep community roots, and our operations continue to deliver the same honest, high-quality mountain hospitality that first started the zipline industry in East Tennessee.

”Such an awesome place!! Everyone was super friendly and the guides were awesome! If you have never been zip lining before and are nervous they make it super fun and not scary at all.

”The zip lining itself was an amazing experience, but the guides are what made the experience phenomenal! Taylor and James were patient, helpful, friendly, humorous and just so much fun!! And it was super affordable. I’ll definitely be going back if I ever take a trip to the smokies again.

”The Ziplining adventure was great! I have 6 kids that were all first timers and the guides did an awesome job at making them feel confident enough to try tricks on the lines and even go upside down. It was a super fun experience for all as a family!

”This is hands-down the best zip line in all of TN and all of the south. I'm so thankful for their staff. Jake and Audrey made my son feel so special and comfortable with the zip line experience! They were kind, positive, encouraging, and willing to challenge my little man to go out on his own.
