# Read more about this tour
Every line on this course is dual-track, which makes it the only all-dual zipline tour on Maui. You and a partner clip in side by side and launch together, so no one rides alone and no one waits at the top wondering what the first jump feels like. Across the full 6-line route you cover 8,500 feet of cable strung over the slopes of the West Maui Mountains, a volcano that has been here roughly 1.7 million years.
In reviews, the guides and the variety come up before the speed does. The 3.5 hours are split between three things: an ATV ride up through the rainforest with your guide driving, the six racing lines themselves, and a walk across a 360-foot suspension bridge, the longest in Hawaiʻi. The bridge sways underfoot and reads longer when you are standing on it than it sounds on paper.
How the day runs
You ride the ATV uphill between zip sections rather than hiking, which is part of why mixed-ability groups manage this tour well. The 6-line version covers lines #3 through #8 of the course. The tour departs from Kapalua on West Maui, about 15 minutes north of the Kāʻanapali resorts. Safety equipment and rain gear are included, and closed-toe shoes are required. Wind and rain can slow the cables, and on a slow day the guides will have you tuck or cannonball to keep momentum to the far platform. With a group of eight or nine there is some standing around between lines while everyone clips in and clears. The tour runs rain or shine and is only called off for extreme wind, thunder, or lightning.

This is the West Maui pick for groups who want more than zipping. Groups ranging from age 10 to riders in their 70s clear this tour without trouble, and launching next to someone steadies most nervous first-timers. Minimum age is 10, minimum weight 60 pounds, minimum height 4 feet, maximum weight 250 pounds. Anyone 10 to 17 has to zip alongside an adult.
6-line vs 4-line: which to book
The 4-line tour drops lines #3 and #4 and runs about an hour shorter for about $40 less. The course map on this page shows where each set of lines sits. The extra two lines on the 6-line route are the longer stretch of the course, so if the distance is the reason you are zipping at all, the 6-line is the one. If budget or available time is tighter, the 4-line still includes the ATV ride and the suspension bridge. Read the full 4-line breakdown at the 4-line tour page.
At $240 for 3.5 hours, this sits at the top of the West Maui zipline price range, and the reviewers who call it spendy usually add that it was worth it. You are paying for the ATV and the bridge as much as the cable. The detail that comes up over and over is patience: guides walk older and anxious riders through each launch without rushing the line behind them, which is why mixed-ability groups book this one. Book earlier in the day if you can, since wind is what most often slows the cables.
