Zip
Line technology borrows heavily from that used of rock and mountain
climbing, and features a double line with redundancy to provide
a safe environment for the users. Being the first Canopy tour in
Belize, our lines are built to standards approved by the Association
for Challenged Course Technologists. Our Aerial Trek Canopy Tour
offers the adventurous tourists a thrilling opportunity to soar
through the jungle treetops high above the forest floor. The canopy
tour involves traversing from one platform to another along a steel
cable suspended up to 80 feet above the forest floor.
Upon
arrival you will be given a safety briefing and outfitted with safety
gear that includes a body harness, pulleys, helmet and gloves. After
you are fully geared up and checked, your tour then starts off with
a short educational hike up to the first platform.
Here a new world
unfolds as you gently slide along on a steel cable to the next
tree platform. All tours are escorted through the forest canopy
by a lead guide and a follow guide to ensure your safety. The guides explain the different areas of the ecosystem you are experiencing.
Your tour will take you over eight platforms. Along the way you
will enjoy the birds eye view of our beautiful pristine ecosystem.
When you arrive on the last platform you will then need to repel
to the ground. The tour will take approximately two hours.
