Ziplines at a Glance Maui

Reservations and Information 1-808-879-6260

Next to Maui Luaus and Snorkel excursions to Molokini, Maui Zipline tours are the most popular tours on Maui.
When making your choice be very careful about your weight. Children under 80# will need to go with Piiholo Canopy flights,  or Maui Zipline @ the Maui Tropical Plantation as these companies start @ 60#-250#

Both Kaanapali Zipline has the BEST views with PANORAMIC OCEAN VIEWS almost the whole time!

 

Canopy Tours @ Piiholo

 

Haleakala Ziplines is the original Zipline Company in Hawaii. They were sold out months in advance until the other zip lines were built. Now they are the easier to get into as they are the smallest course (soon to be revamped we hear). Still a popular Zipline, Haleakala combines a short hike through a towering forest, an “Indiana Jones” style swinging bridge, and five amazing ziplines ,

Cindy & Lonny Canopy tours

Maui Ziplines is centrally located at the Maui Tropical Plantation and is a great one for families as their weight requirements are only 50# – 250 #, children need to be at least 5 years old.
Enjoy a thrilling adventure soaring over the beautiful Maui Tropical Plantation. Zip over a lush landscape, swaying palms, and savor the majestic views of the valley island. With five side-by-side ziplines, ranging from 300 to 900 feet, with a refreshment stop at a Treehouse where you will get a bird’s eye view of the spectacular Haleakala volcano, the picturesque West Maui mountains, and the rugged coastlines. Family & friends that do not want to zip are free to enjoy the beautiful grounds of the Maui Tropical Plantation and they will be able to observe all of the ziplines from the lagoon area. * after ziplining the kids can feed the ducks, there is even a duck feeder with food.

If you make your reservations ahead of your arrival on Maui, you can pick and choose the Maui Zipline company you prefer; however if you are like most you will simply get what’s available when you arrive. If you have the time to choose a company, 1 of the things I point out is the harness itself. Some people really like the comfort of the full harnesses like with Piiholo & Kapalua (same builders by the way) vs the harness used on Haleakala & Kaanapali, however with this type of harness you have more control over what you are doing as you zip across the canyons. The younger more adventurous crowd loves the Kaanapali Ziplines because of the 8 Ziplines and the harness; not to mention lunch & views.

Tree Top Suspension Bridge

1 of the frequently asked questions we get is how high off the ground are you? The answer is different for each line, however, expect 20ft + high. Most people scared of heights do not notice the height as you are not really looking down but out towards the view or to your destination.

Please be aware of each Maui Ziplines companies Safety requirements and policies. They are VERY STRICT on weights and most will weigh you at check-in.

    We stayed at Sugar Beach Resort last month and the girls at Maui Sights & Treasures in the office there were great! They hooked us up with the newest zip line. 9 Line zip lines and 4 swinging bridges! Once you take the first bridge you are going from tree to tree the whole time!!!!!! What a blast and we never stepped foot on the ground until the end.

    Best of all we were able to take our 8 year old son (they have to weight 60 lbs) It was a great family outing and our son was thrilled! Be sure to bring tennis shoes though, we had to go buy some as we only brought our sandals. Highly recommend this one for everyone, you don't even have to be brave!
