Our family has zip lined many times before, but this was such a beautiful and safe experience at LTZA. We booked in November, and the weather got cold and rainy. They were very accommodating and allowed us to reschedule for the next day when it was sunny. It required quite a bit of hiking, so wear comfortable shoes and be prepared to climb steps. The longest hike between zip lines was .48 mile, but there were benches along the routes. They provided plenty of bottled water for us at each stop. Our appointment was at 3:00, and the sun started setting right as we got back to the boat dock. It was a gorgeous view!

Austin and Raylon made our first zip line experience awesome!! We definitely got good instruction to ensure we felt safe before our first ride. They added humor, music and a fun atmosphere that made the time fly by and wanting more rides. Our two teen boys definitely agreed. We would absolutely recommend if you want great experience with views high above the lake. Thanks for fun!!

For the last day of Spring Break this year, we planned a trip to Lake Travis Zipline Adventures. Our children each invited a friend and the Groupon discount was definitely an added incentive. The booking option and online waiver process was a piece of cake. While living in the area for the past 7 years, this has been on my radar to check out and I'm only sorry it took me this long to book it with the family. Everyone with Lake Travis Zipline Adventures was awesome! Eric and Mike were awesome guides, very informative and entertaining and definitely added to our experience. I had read up on the website to prepare and was able to coach the family to be prepared with dress and comfort and to be prepared for a little physical activity (e.g. hiking.) The five (5) ziplines were a blast, each one getting progressively faster and longer, until the final dual-zip race over a section of the water. You take a nice little boat ride on a pontoon boat to the other side of Lake Travis, which is where the ziplines are. There's a nice briefing area where they help you get suited up and fitted for the correct size harness and they you are off to a small hike to the first zip. The first one was to get you acclimated to not grabbing the line, getting situated, and comfortable. The second was a short hike uphill to the next station with a little more speed and length to the zip. The same for the 3rd. The 4th zip was over a section of the water and was pretty fast with an amazing view! The final hike uphill was the most challenging, but there was a bench mid-way, and the guides were super great the entire day about staying hyrdrated with the water that they provide and many of the zip platforms, as well as taking your time. It was a nice overcast day and the temperature was very pleasant. We all had a total blast and enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely be back to try out the Night Zip Line experience. I don't think I'd want to do this in the Texas summer heat, though. :)

Excellent service. Lovely property that was well manicured. Fun staff - Madison and Caleb were amazing!!! Great views, so worth doing this trip for 5 zip line tours. We did the 5pm tour and it was great having the evening breeze and watching the sun set over Lake Travis. I would definitely do this again.

Like apparently all previous reviewers, we had a fantastic time. Lake Travis Zipline Adventures is very professional in all aspects, from booking, to check-in, to safety, to making it fun, and much more. Iced water is provided throughout. The last hike to the top of the last line is quite steep, and we were quite slow, yet our guides stayed with us, didn't hurry us ... just chatted and kept us company. Our guides were Bo and Emily, and both were excellent. A wonderful afternoon's adventure.

Best: Guides were informed, safe, social and helpful. There were some nervous people on our group but Jenna and Austin calming influence put them at ease.
Going on the 8:30 session was brilliant. The temps were cool, and breezy. But even when hiking, you're under the tree canopy so there's no direct sun beating down on you.
The first two zip lines are short and good to get comfortable. The last 3 are LONG. The last one is super long, over water and quite fast. Even still, no one was anxious because the guides had made them feel comfortable and confident.
Kudos to Jenna and Austin
Be sure to plan to tip the guides too.
BTW, Groupon has a deal to save $20/person if you go midweek.

This was my third time zip lining at Lake Travis Zipline Adventures and as always the experience was amazing! This time around my tour guides were Neil and Neil. Both were super friendly and made everyone feel comfortable; especially if it was your first time zipping. The views are breathtaking and there’s lots of stops along the way for photo-opts. If you’re looking for something you can do with friends and family, who don’t mind hiking some, I’d definitely recommend going to Lake Travis Zipline Adventures.

We did our Lake Travis Zipline adventure on Aug. 4th , late afternoon. Our group of 7 had a blast. Our guides Hayden and McKenna did a great job. They kept us safe which was job #1, told us lots of horrible jokes and kept us hydrated and motivated on the rather sunny 🌞 excursion. I think it was 104 degrees. It was well worth the price and you will get your workout in for the day. The go pro footage was priceless and already have friends wanting to go. Thanks again to Hayden and McKenna for a memorable experience. We will be back

We did a morning zip run with a group of six. It was a blast and our guides were well informed, fun and friendly. They took great care of us. The adventure began with a short boat ride across the lake to our starting point. Wear good shoes, there is quite a bit of hiking between some of the lines and some of it is a steep climb. It takes you up to views of Lake Travis that are spectacular. The zipping is such fun, with each section giving you a different experience in length and speed. After the boat ride back, you can stay on their grounds and enjoy the lake if you brought a picnic, or go for a swim off their dock. There are clean bathrooms, a small souvenir shop, picnic tables, hammocks, comfortable seating along the lake edge with beautiful views, and corn hole available to enjoy on their lovely grounds. You could easily make a day of family fun if you come prepared.

An entertaining experience which included trail hiking through the Lake Travis country side, 5 exhilarating zip line rides, and a couple of entertaining guides. My 14 year old daughter and I really enjoyed racing down across Lake Travis on the longest zip line in Texas. The team at Lake Travis Zipline Adventures made us feel safe with their COVID 19 protocol of masks and social distancing, combined with hand sanitizer at every station.

I’ve never been zip lining before but my whole family has and they love it. I am scared because I hate heights and I am terrified of going fast. Does anyone know about how fast all the zip-lines travel? I just dont want to waste the $120 and chicken out once I get up there. I know it says they are the fastest in Texas. Thanks everyone!

The actual speed varies on so many different things like weight and wind. The first two are pretty slow and lower to the ground. They are perfect for breaking you into ziplining. In my experience, they got faster with each zipline. I was nervous about it at first, but it's really not scary. The scenery when you are on the zipline is gorgeous. I found it thrilling, but not scary. And the guides help you feel comfortable too if you are nervous about it.
What are the prices like?

$119.00 per person plus tax. Lasts about 3 hours, depending on how many others are in the group.

Hi, Pmichael. What would you like to know about this attraction?
I am 64, just under 250 pounds, and I can hike the one mile at elevation pretty easily. But, I am somewhat afraid to try ziplining at Lake Travis. Thoughts?
Toober
Arlington, TX56 contributions
I was afraid too, I hate heights, but the lines start out short and then proceed to increase in height and length. The terrain gets rougher as you go higher (they keep the area as natural as possible), so if the weight of your gear gets to you, just ask one of the guides to carry it for you (mine volunteered, seeing me huff and puff). Beach is close to where you start out and I see that a new attraction has been added. For $50.00 you get to use their private beach area that has flotation devices on the water (trampoline, slide, obstacle course). You will need reservations. There were children on my tour, they were the most adventurous and their parents had done zip lines with them at this destination last summer. There is a restroom at the end of the lines, takes about an hour or so to complete the event, depending on how many are participating. There has been a 90 year old woman doing this, she loved it and there are pictures at the rental. You can take snacks, drinks, but it goes pretty quickly and I didn't drink, didn't want to have to "go." Early is best, it gets pretty hot. Wear closed toe shoes, shorts are ok as long as they don't ride up on you with the apparatus they put on you to secure you. There are picnic tables and a grill or two at their private beach area, as well as chairs which you can enjoy during your time there which is included. Take food and enjoy the rest of the day at this area. Few cabins available but they go quickly. Don't know of any discounts, maybe Groupon.

I see that there is a beach provided, is the beach close to where our car is parked? Want to see if I can get things from my car after the zip and enjoy the beach.
Also what is the transportation for?
Toober
Arlington, TX56 contributions
Transportation (boat) is to take you to the zip lines and back. Yes, your car is right at the area where you start so you can unpack after the zip and enjoy the picnic area.
