FAQs

Are reservations required?

Reservations are strongly encouraged. Without a reservation, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate you, although we will try to accommodate people stopping in if we have space available. Book today!

What should the kids wear?

Our primary advice is to dress for the weather and wear closed-toed shoes (closed-toed shoes are required). 

  • Long hair should be tied back, and should be tied low enough to accommodate the helmet. 
  • Sunglasses and/or prescription glasses may be worn, but should not be put in a pocket. 
  • Please consider leaving jewelry in your vehicle so that it does not get lost on the tour.
  • If you wear shorts, you’ll be most comfortable if they come down to at least mid-thigh, providing a clothing layer under the harness strap.

  • Cancellations made less than 5 days before the scheduled tour will not be refunded or rescheduled, but can be transferred to another guest.
  • Cancellations due to unsafe conditions can be refunded or rescheduled.

Why Visitors Love Kerfoot Canopy Tour

Better Than Hawaii

I have zipped in Hawaii and there is no comparison between the two. Kerfoot is so much better! A definite "must do" for anyone.
- Mudson

Fun and Professional

I took my 13 year old son to Kerfoot Canopy Tours in March of 2018 and he loved it! I'm a bit nervous about heights but their professional guides made me feel quite comfortable and secure.
- Jennifer J.

Incredible Experience!

We had an incredible zip line experience at Kerfoot. Our guides were extremely professional and patient. Don't let the rural location concern you. It's worth the drive!
- Marie H.

Rent a GoPro

Great time and experience. Staff was fantastic. I highly recommend getting a GoPro or renting one since phones/cameras are not allowed on the course. I will definitely be doing this again.
