About

At Herring Cove, an all-terrain custom 4×4 Unimog will transport you up a steep rain forest hillside to the canopy chalet. Professionally trained guides will outfit you with the state-of-the-art safety equipment and provide a detailed orientation before you mount the first platform. Your rain forest canopy challenge features a ‘flight’ over nine zip-lines. Your guide will progressively ease you into the forest canopy along cables ranging from a short 100 feet up to 600 feet with platform as high as 100 feet above the ground. Eagles and bears are often seen from the platforms. Our longest zip that breaks out into the canopy offering breathtaking views of the forest and salmon spawning creek below. Throughout this adventure, you will be surrounded by the sights and sounds of the rain forest wildlife preserve. The final zip-line emerges from the rainforest and transports you over lush grassy wetlands to a viewing tower overlooking the Whitman Lake Fish Hatchery, 55 feet above the ground where you will rappel to the ground.

Highlights

Gliding through the canopy of the Tongass Rainforest on a zipline is an exhilarating experience that immerses you in one of the most breathtaking ecosystems in the world. As you soar above ancient trees, the lush greenery unfolds beneath you, revealing a vibrant tapestry of life. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife—eagles soaring overhead and perhaps even a black bear wandering below. Each moment is a thrilling blend of adrenaline and awe, making for an unforgettable adventure in this stunning natural paradise. Afterwards check out the largest Tsimshian Totem Pole park in the US with over 17 poles carved on site. See the Blacksmiths craft and grab an adult beverage or a coffee from our coffee shop.
