Go Fly, Go High, Go Long at Geronimo Park, where friends, families, teams, and groups can unplug from electronics, participate in thrilling outdoor activities, and enjoy each other's company in a natural environment. Feel the thrill of ziplining as you glide through the treetops across five zip lines and three bridges. Work your way up and across a 42 ft platform as you choose between the exhilarating rush of a simulated free fall experience or a slow, controlled rappel descent. Trek through and take an optional detour through nine aerial challenges, grab a friend, and soar across the park side by side on the longest, fastest zipline at 555 feet.
