    Literally the coolest...

    Kaley_P, Jan 2026
    Literally the coolest thing I've ever done. Not for those scared of heights. This is the next to longest and doesn't quite go all the way to the top of the mountain.

    The coolest thing I’ve ever done!

    Harriette_F, Aug 2025
    I don’t know what else to say except… this was by far the coolest thing I have ever done in my life. My wife and I did the Skyline route and I can’t describe how glad we are that we decided to splurge and do this! We were celebrating my wife’s 30th birthday. She wanted to do something challenging, but we hardly noticed we were working because of the incredible views, awesome guide (Brandon) and the route was just AMAZING! The ladder, the cable, the bridge, etc… it was something we’ll never forget.

    Fantastic experience...

    Fantastic experience overall. Much more difficult than we expected but fun nonetheless. Our guide was helpful and attentive.
