There’s no off-season for ziplining here in the awe-inspiring North Georgia mountains as thrillseekers continuously flock to Blue Ridge in search of world-class aerial excitement. Most travelers who choose Mountain Oasis Cabin Rentals visit the region for its breathtaking waterfalls, award-winning vineyards, serene fly fishing, and ultra-relaxing luxury cottages. But don’t forget about the handful of North Georgia canopy tours within an hour of our rustic yet luxuriant Ellijay cabins.
3 Exhilarating North Georgia Canopy Tours
There are countless ways to explore this tranquil, visually-striking region, including paddling, hiking, and rafting. That being said, a two-hour, 12-deck zipline canopy tour is nearly impossible to top. And, luckily for you and your family, three North Georgia canopy tours transcend all expectations.
Zipline Canopy Tours of Blue Ridge
Zipline Canopy Tours of Blue Ridge, in collaboration with the Blue Ridge Adventure Park, is the premier zipline near Atlanta. Thrillseekers and curious adventurers alike can choose between the one-hour and two-hour tour, both of which meander through a glorious, meticulously-designed course amid 165 acres of North Georgia beauty. We always recommend the two-hour tour because it features 13 zips, 1,000-foot-long runs, three sky bridges, and 12 decks topping out at 75 feet above the earth. The summertime night adventure aerial challenge, meanwhile, is a must!
Ocoee River Canopy Tours
OK, so technically Ocoee River Canopy Tours is parked in Copperhill, Tennessee, approximately 15 miles north of Blue Ridge. But most locals consider Wildwater’s Ocoee River excursion one of the best North Georgia canopy tours. In fact, most folks who stay in one of our top-rated Ellijay cabin rentals typically spend an afternoon in Copperhill, a quintessential border town that sits just across the Toccoa River from Georgia’s McCaysville. Wildwater, as its name would suggest, offers so much more than just ziplining—they also provide world-class rafting, jeep tours, and even train adventures. The Ocoee River adventure is a bargain worth considering as it only costs $59 per person for three hours of fun. However, it is closed during the wintertime.
Nacoochee Adventures
Nacoochee Adventures may be a short-haul from Ellijay (63 miles, to be exact), but it’s worth mentioning because it’s widely respected as one of the top-reviewed North Georgia canopy tours. It’s not uncommon for guests to venture to Helen, Blairsville, and Dahlonega during autumn’s peak in search of the state’s most vibrant foliage. In turn, many leaf peepers make a pit stop at Nacoochee Adventures for a bit of aerial exploration. They offer four different tours, which range from 30 to 150 minutes in length. The misty mountains that enclose these courses are heavenly. Oh, and don’t miss out on the goldmine expedition!
