Combo Course Zipline Tour

Flying through Seven Falls Canyon is the kind of Colorado day you remember, fast. This combo zipline course pairs 8 ziplines with two suspension bridges and a 180 ft assisted rappel, then wraps in Seven Falls park admission. When I look at zip tours, I care most about the real-world feel, and the safety focus shows up right away, with guides like John and Cole setting you up for speed control and calm confidence.

The fun is real, but the rules are strict

My favorite part is how the course ramps up, starting with instruction and then moving into longer, faster, higher zips as you go. The one consideration is the strict weight limit of 90 to 250 pounds, and you are discreetly weighed before departure, plus you need closed-toed shoes and to be sober and not pregnant.

Key things to know before you go

• 8 zip-lines plus bridges and rappel, with platforms where you are tethered for safety
• Ground school first, so you learn to control speed before you fly
• Seven Falls park admission included, so you end with something scenic on foot too
• Max group size is 8, which usually means less waiting around
• A strict 90 to 250 lbs weight limit applies for safety, no exceptions listed
• Weather can delay tours, so have a flexible mindset on the day

Entering The Broadmoor Soaring Adventure meeting point

Your morning starts at Broadmoor Soaring Adventure, 6 Lake Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80906. The tour runs about 4 hours and starts at 9:00 am, with a reminder to arrive 15 minutes early. If you are the type who likes a clean start, this timing matters. You will want those extra minutes for check-in, weight verification, shoe inspection, and getting comfortable with the gear before you step onto the first platform.

One more practical note that can surprise people: the drive up can feel intense if you are nervous on steep or twisty roads. Plan to arrive un-rushed, because the excitement starts early, even before the first zip.

What the combo course actually includes (and why it feels better than a basic zip)

This is not a single zipline and a quick tour. It is a combo course built to escalate, both in distance and height. You will run 8 ziplines with lengths ranging from 250 feet up to 1,800 feet, and the course reaches around 500 feet high. On top of that, you will handle two suspension bridges plus a 180 ft assisted rappel. That mix is why this tour tends to land with people who want more than just a loop of zipping.

Here is how that translates into your experience. With only a couple ziplines, you spend a lot of time watching other people and waiting for your turn. With a combo course, your pacing feels like real activity, and the bridges and rappel break up the ride so your brain stays engaged.

Safety and speed control: the part that makes the rest fun

Before anyone goes airborne, you get a safety orientation and ground school. The guides teach you how to safely control your speed while you zip. That matters more than most people think, because zipline fun depends on comfort. When you understand what you can control, you stop fighting the sensation and start enjoying it.

You are also tethered while you are on platforms, ziplines, and bridges. In plain terms, you are not left to figure it out alone at height. In the reviews, the safety equipment and the feeling of being secured came up again and again, and that lines up with how this course is designed: thrill with guardrails.

Guides like Kaley and Karesa and Kelen and Devin are specifically praised for being both encouraging and focused on safety. That combination is what turns first-time nerves into a steady rhythm.

Stop 1: Broadmoor Soaring Adventure zipline course in Seven Falls Canyon

Your main event happens here. The tour begins with check-in and instruction, then you move onto the first zipping platform. Early on, the vibe is very teachable: you learn the body position, the timing, and how speed feels when you are in control.

Then the course ramps up. The later runs are longer, faster, and higher than the early ones. That progression is smart. Instead of throwing you into the biggest moment immediately, you build confidence step by step, and the scenery keeps shifting as you gain altitude.

You will also conquer the other “no kidding” elements:

• Two suspension bridges that test balance at significant height
• A 180 ft assisted rappel, where the guide support and equipment do most of the heavy lifting

If you worry about heights, I would not ignore that. Suspension bridges can get your heart going. But if you can follow instructions and keep your hands and feet where they belong, this is the kind of challenge that feels big and still manageable because you are tethered and guided.

Seven Falls park access: what you do after you land

A big value add here is admission to Seven Falls park included. That means you do not just finish sweaty and exhilarated and then drive away with no payoff on the ground.

Your gear situation is also worth planning for. If you bring large items like cameras or backpacks, they cannot ride on the course. They get transported back to you by ground support staff at the end. You can still use those items inside Seven Falls after the zipline portion, which is when you often want photos.

If you want to carry only essentials, the tour provides small pouches for wallets, cell phones, and keys. The goal is simple: keep the course clean and safe, while still letting you capture the views after.

The physical and practical requirements that matter day of

This tour is rated best for a moderate physical fitness level. That does not mean you need to be an athlete, but you do need to be steady on your feet and able to follow instructions at height.

Also, the restrictions are not vague:

• Weight limit is 90 to 250 pounds, and it is strict
• Closed-toed shoes are required, and all toes must be in the same compartment (five-toed shoes are not acceptable)
• No pregnancy is allowed
• You must be of sober mind, with no alcohol or substances listed

I recommend you take these seriously because they affect whether you can ride at all. If you are unsure about fit or shoe choice, check in beforehand so you are not scrambling.

Clothing should match Colorado weather. Even in a good season, conditions can shift. Wear layers you can handle, and keep pockets minimal so your pouch solution works smoothly.

Group size and timing: why 8 travelers feels like the sweet spot

This activity caps at 8 travelers, and that matters for how the time actually feels. Smaller groups usually mean less waiting, fewer stand-around moments, and quicker turnover at platforms. You can stay in your mental zone instead of getting pulled out of it by long gaps.

The whole tour runs about 4 hours, so it is a focused half-day adventure. That also makes it easier to pair with other Colorado Springs plans later, like a meal or a slower scenic stop after Seven Falls.

Because weather can affect the course, you might face delays. I suggest having a backup plan in mind, but keep in mind that zipline operators will not risk unsafe conditions.

Price and value: is $408 a good deal for what you get?

At $408 per person, this is not a casual budget activity. But it can be good value if you compare it to what you actually receive in one morning.

You are getting:

• 8 separate ziplines with distances from 250 feet to 1,800 feet
• two suspension bridges
• a 180 ft assisted rappel
• safety training and tethered support throughout
• Seven Falls park admission included

That is a lot of built-in cost drivers. A basic zipline often includes a smaller set of rides and no extra entry ticket. Here, you are paying for a full course experience plus the park time that extends the day and gives you a second payoff after the adrenaline.

If you are choosing between a lighter zip tour and this combo, I would treat this like a “do it once, do it well” purchase. For first-timers, it is also a confidence builder because instruction and speed control come before you fly.

Who should book this zipline combo course?

This tour is a great match if you want a hands-on adrenaline day with guided safety, not a passive sightseeing experience. It is especially good for:

• First-time zipliners who need calm instruction and encouragement
• People who want variety beyond ziplines, like bridges and a rappel
• Travelers who also want a scenic finish at Seven Falls park

It may not be the best fit if you:

• Are sensitive to heights but still want the thrill (bridges may feel intense)
• Have trouble meeting the strict 90 to 250 lbs weight limit
• Want to bring lots of gear on course (large items must be handled by ground support staff)

Quick tips to make your day smoother

These are the practical tweaks that usually pay off:

• Wear your required closed-toed shoes before arriving, not after. Five-toed shoes are a no.
• Keep essentials in a small pouch if you want phone or keys, since large items cannot ride the course.
• Arrive early so the weigh-in and check-in do not eat into your energy.
• If you are nervous, lean into the ground school. Learning speed control is a real confidence switch.
• Expect the later zips to feel bigger. The course intentionally ramps up.

Also, if you want to choose which part of the group energy you lean into, pay attention to the guide style. Reviews highlight that guides like Ben and Ryan, Justin and Am, and John and Cole keep people focused, which is exactly what you want at height.

Should you book the Broadmoor Soaring Adventure combo course?

I think you should book this if you want a full zipline course experience in Seven Falls Canyon, not a short ride with limited variety. The mix of 8 ziplines, bridges, and an assisted rappel, plus Seven Falls park admission, gives you a lot of value packed into a half-day.

You should pause before booking if the strict 90 to 250 lbs weight limit is a concern for you or if you have trouble following gear and safety rules like closed-toed shoes and sobriety. And if bridges and heights are a real worry, go in knowing the course includes those moments.

If you fit the requirements and you want to trade extra sightseeing time for a guided, safety-conscious adrenaline day, this combo course is one of the stronger bets in Colorado Springs.
