AVA Cliffside Zipline - Idaho Springs, Colorado

So much fun! Thank you Hunter and Kale for such a fun experience. It was a chilly morning but we enjoyed the zip line course so much the temps didn't matter! Hunter and Kale were so kind and took the best care with our son who was so excited to be there. We loved it and would recommend! Thank you guys again!

1000% recommend. 6/5 stars. Tim and Teegan were hilarious, entertaining, and knowledgeable guides. Worth every penny and minute. Would recommend to anyone and would do again if we were in the area!

Highly recommend this zipline spot for a few hours of adventure! Jeremiah and John Dodge made the trip a hell of a ride. They kept the trip entertaining and gave wonderful tips on how to stay in control, which lines to do tricks on, how to slow down safely, and when to speed up! The additional walking paths and bridges kept it unique as well.

The equipment is easy to get on, the staff helps with the harness. You also get gloves and a helmet. They make the helmets fun by adding names to each one. Our youngest (9 years old) had "Chicken Nugget" and our oldest had "Boomer"!

When you start the trip they give you a run down on the history and point out haunted buildings plus historical sites. It gets bumpy when you hit the mountain path so prepare to hold on! Patrick rocked it driving the truck and even had a fun scare at the end, spiked your adrenaline and gets you ready to hit the zipline!

If you use Apple Maps then make sure you put in the right address. Our map accidentally took us up the road too far and we had to circle back. The staff was amazing though and waited for us to arrive so we didn't miss the action!

Tim and Fionn were great. You can tell Tim loves his job and he’s great at it! Funny, explained things well and set us up for a great time. Our group of 8 had an amazing experience and I’d totally recommend them. We felt safe, well-prepared and consider the zip lining one of our favorite activities of our trip. Two thumbs up!!

Shout out to Tyler & Lily for their guidance this as past weekend on our Rock Climbing experience! Our experience was nothing short of fantastic. As first time climbers, this was the perfect course for us and we look forward to doing another AVA rock climbing experience at a different location in the future!

We had an awesome time zip lining! Tim and Kale were amazing guides. It was a thrilling and challenging adventure! For being terrified of heights, this experience was incredible! Tim and Kale made us feel extremely safe and cared for. Their experience and passion truly shined through, keeping us comfortable and engaged. Thank you to the AVA team!

I have never been zip lining and was pretty scared- my family and I did the package deal with AVA and completed the zip lining and the rafting, and it was amazing!!! All of our guides : John Dodge, Maverick and Austin were incredible and made our experience fun and exhilarating. I felt that my family was safe and that they were there if we needed help! Would highly recommend and will be coming back again for the next level up!!

Amazing experience!! Toast & Bennet were the best hands down! They truly help as far as safely goes. Loved that they were both so down to earth & eased this trip for us since we got to experience snow for the first time as well. 👏🫶
