Why you must try Zipline in Jamaica’s Rainforest


A rainforest trip or a nature trip to the country of Jamaica will never be complete without a zip line canopy adventure. A place of refuge filled with beautiful rainforests and vast tree canopies are just perfect to experience the thrill and excitement of riding a zip line.


Just like any other rainforests in the world, Jamaica’s rainforest have a lot of zip line and canopy tours to offer for first time or even common visitors. These tours assure everyone trying it that their adventure in Jamaica will be treasured as an experience of a lifetime. Zip line tours are top-on-the-list in Jamaica when you’re looking for amazing nature trip experiences.

Here we’ve listed reasons why you should try a zip line adventure in Jamaica:

Zip lining takes your rainforest adventure to the next level. You might think that riding a zip line serves only one reason: to provide a thrilling adventure for those who want it. But that’s not the case; indeed, zip lines are invented to travel goods and now persons, to one end of the canopy or a hill to another. Just like riding an elevator compared to taking the stairs, definitely you’ll find more enjoyment and accessibility with zip lining rather than just walking on a rainforest floor. 

Zip lining provides you with a bird’s eye view of wildlife in Jamaica. Soaring above tree tops is a great way to explore the canopy of trees providing you with a good look of trees, plants and animals above. Although you might not see the plants and animals on the ground, travelling above the trees near the sky is definitely a new experience and a new opportunity to learn about wildlife.

Montego Bay Region and Ocho Rios Region offer great zip line adventures. There are perfect places in Jamaica that will provide you zip lines of a lifetime. At Montego Bay found on the northwestern side of Jamaica, you will find the longest zip line in the Caribbean. The 1600 feet line named Big Timba, is just one of the five lines. After soaring above the forest canopy, the guides will take you to an off-road ride through Pinzgauers. On the other hand, Ocho Rios Region found on the north central edge of Jamaica will not just take you above trees, but also above a river on the Cranbook Flowering Tree Sanctuary.

A zip line trip from a mountain top to a forest floor is offered. If you’re tired of the usual zip lines transporting you from one end of the forest to its another end, or one mountain top to a lower mountain top, there’s a new experience made for you. At the Mystic Mountain Adventure Park you can experience six lines, a vertical rappel then a suspension bridge. The end of the zip line tour will definitely give you nerve tickles. You’ll get to ride on their Rainforest Sky Explorer which is a chairlift that will take from the canopy to the rainforest ground.
