Moab Zip Line Adventure: Red Rock Canopy Flight
Launch off canyon ridges and zip above red-rock canyons on a three-hour aerial tour outside Moab. This guided zipline run pairs an off-road approach with multiple suspended lines for panoramic canyon views and an adrenaline-charged perspective on the Colorado Plateau.
The Experience
Before You Go
Check weight and height limits before booking
Operators enforce strict weight/height rules for safety—provide accurate measurements during booking to avoid last-minute disqualification.
Wear closed-toe, grippy shoes
Trails to platforms are rocky and may include metal stairs—sturdy footwear improves comfort and safety.
Hydrate and avoid midday summer heat
Bring a full water bottle and schedule early-morning slots in summer to minimize heat exposure and dehydration risk.
Protect skin and eyes from sun and glare
Sunscreen, a brimmed hat for waiting periods, and sunglasses are essential—UV is strong on exposed canyon rims.

Conservation Note
Canyon country sees pressure from recreation and off-road use; stick to established trails, pack out trash, and follow guide instructions to minimize erosion and disturbance to cultural sites.
The Moab region records centuries of Indigenous presence (Ancestral Puebloan and Ute peoples) and later 20th-century mining and uranium activity that shaped settlement and access to canyon lands.
