The ZipTour is a four-stage course that begins with a chairlift ride to the top of Mount Washington and finishes back at the resort’s Alpine Lodge.
Guests can control their speed of dissent, so you can choose the thrills of speeding over the landscape or slow down to take in the Alpine to ocean views.
The tour starts with training sessions at a practice zipline before taking a chairlift ride and then walking to each of the four stages.
Ticket prices vary by age group, ranging from $99 – $129.
