Zipline At Foxwoods

broken image


It was way overdue but well worth the wait. It was time to try the Zipline 'HighFlyer' at Foxwoods. First, you must know the staff is great. Special thanks to my HighFlyer friend Shelby. She makes the experience terrific. With a calm and specific explanation, she welcomes you, calms you (if you need it) gives you all the info you need for the next thrilling half-hour of your life. Thanks, Shelby!

The Journey Begins

Enjoy special deals on your favorite movies and concessions at the Drive-In at Foxwoods! HIGHFLYER ZIPLINE Fly Four for only $200! HOLOGATE VR + XD DRARK RIDE Enjoy both mind-blowing attractions for only $14.99! HIGHFLYER ZIPLINE. Foxwoods HighFlyer Zipline is the biggest zipline in Connecticut and the only zipline in America that launches from a 33-story hotel tower. There is no other experience quite like it! Journey to the top of Foxwoods Resort Casino's Fox Tower, 350 feet off the ground and feel the breeze under you as you soar over the treetops at nearly 60mph on the High Flyer zipline, arriving a mile away, at the Museum & Research Center.

After you have made your appointment online or in person, you meet more of the staff in the Fox Tower casino entrance, where the Zipline desk is situated. Then you follow the staff to the Fox Hotel to take the elevator up to the 30th floor. This is when you notice some getting restless, second-guessing if they should have planned to take the plunge.

On the 30th floor, you get fitted with your harness. Then, for your safety and entertainment, a two-minute video of what to expect and how to prepare for stopping at the end.

Play rainbow riches free. Now, the harness apparatus is quite bulky. It makes the smallest of humans walk like the Hulk. But, before going up two more floors, they add the heavy connection to the Zipline itself.

Now, it's time to walk up two more floors with all your gear. By the time I got up to the top, I was ready to sit in my harness to catch my breath!

Was It Worth It?

Absolutely. The only thing that would have made it perfect would have been the fabulous New England foliage, but I didn't want to wait any longer in the season.

It's a relaxing ride….at up to 50MPH. Surrounded by the woods of Mashantucket, you slow down and land abruptly but safely near the Pequot Museum. Explorer full screen. The staff helps you down, takes pictures, and directs you back to the shuttle to take you back. Comments on the shuttle ranged from 'that was awesome' to 'I'm going to that again someday.' I concurred with them all.
