Want to take the ride of your life? Try dropping 525 vertical feet at speeds up to 50 mph all while staring directly at Lake Tahoe. Check out the new Heavenly Flyer, Lake Tahoe's newest and most exhilarating ride.
The Heavenly Flyer propels riders at speeds up to 50 mph as they cruise over the treetops and look out over Lake Tahoe. With two separate lines, riders can enjoy the experience side-by-side with a friend.
At 3,300 feet, the Heavenly Flyer is the longest zip line in the continental United States. Its 525-foot vertical drop matches that of the Space Needle. From the Launching Pad, stationed at the top of Tamarack Express, to the Landing Zone, situated above the top of the Gondola and the tubing hill, the total ride time is about 80 seconds.
Winter hours of operation are 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., seven days a week. Rides are $30 ($20 for pass holders who present an active Heavenly season pass) and can be purchased at the Gondola ticket window or at the Adventure Peak kiosk located at the top of the Gondola.
There are a limited number of rides every day and are scheduled by appointment only. Next-day advanced ticket sales are available for a $10 premium to ensure a spot is available. Riders must be at least 52 inches tall and weigh more than 75 pounds, and cannot exceed 80 inches tall or 275 pounds.
Words cannot even express the exhilaration of this ride, check out the Heavenly Flyer Video below.
