Ride the 5,330-foot ZipRider down the mountain before the crowds arrive — a genuine adrenaline bucket-list moment with views over Icy Strait.
What to expect
A van or gondola takes you up the mountain to the launch platform above the tree line. Harnessed in tandem lines, you drop and race down at up to 60 mph over forest canopy with the Strait and distant peaks in view. The ride lasts about 90 seconds but the mountaintop views and adrenaline linger.
Good to know
Reserve the earliest available time slot directly with Icy Strait Point to avoid midday lines; weight restrictions apply. Located right at the port complex, no transfer needed.
