Shawnee Bluffs Canopy Tour, Illinois, United States
5.0 (215 reviews) Saturday: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent Ranking #1 in Makanda Nature & Wildlife Tours
Good zip line in southern Illinois
This is a course of 8 zip line runs of various lengths plus a short practice run. You are always connected to a very strong cable at 2 points so everyone is very safe. Rose and Will did a tremendous job. We were a small group of 3 retired folks. The staff made sure that we were safe at all times and did a great job briefing us on each run. They were knowledgeable about the local flora and were able to answer all of our questions. Great job guys. After our tour, Marc the owner, gave us some great hiking and dining ideas. All and all a fantastic time.

Fantastic zip line tour!
So I'm married to a real talker and his best friend is too... so I was so happy we were in a group of just the 3 of us! Our guides Grant and Will were spot on! The instruction was clear and professional, they were professional and A LOT of fun, and they put up with all the talking and question asking from the hubs and friend! Will had a lot of great jokes and it was such a laid back experience. The lines were great and fast. The trees were starting to turn so it was beautiful. It is a long way out there so follow the GPS. You can't take anything in the trees with you so leave your stuff in the car or you can put it in the bucket at the front desk. They will take some photos of you along the way and share them via Google drive. They also provide water along the route. I HIGHLY recommend this tours if you are adventurous. We took the 3 hour tour and it only lasted about an hour and 40 mins because there were only 3 of us. Stretch and be ready for the hiking strips.

You MUST do this! Incredible!!
The most fun I’ve had for a while! The entire enterprise is very well done. The Shawnee forest makes incredibly beautiful backdrop for these awesome lines, especially in the autumn! Marc and David were entertaining and made the tour most enjoyable. I can’t wait to go back!
