Missouri zipline tours: Branson and the Lake of the Ozarks
A Missouri zipline tour here means a canopy course in the Ozark hills, not a ride inside a cave. The two courses are in Branson and in Camdenton, on the Lake of the Ozarks. Each course strings together eight forest ziplines, and the Camdenton one adds a hanging bridge.
The zipline at Meramec Caverns is closed for the 2026 season. The courses below are alternatives in the Branson and lake areas; Camdenton operates seasonally without a published closing date.
Prices as of November 2026, per person: $89.95 in Camdenton and $96.60 in Branson. The difference is $6.65 per person. Camdenton includes equipment and bottled water, while the Branson listing includes a local guide.

Zipline in Branson: eight lines through the forest
The Branson course covers eight ziplines through the woods near West 76 Country Boulevard. The listed tour takes about two hours. Instruction and harness fitting come before the first ride, making the course accessible to beginners. Allow for light walking and stairs between lines, as described for the course.
The booking lists the park at 5585 W 76 Country Boulevard and directs you to follow the signs to check-in. Arrive 30 minutes early. The course advertises a minimum age of 3 and requires a parent or guardian for riders under 16, but the linked booking sets a weight limit below 250 lb. Check the age and weight conditions for your party when booking, particularly for children.
Zipline at the Lake of the Ozarks: Camdenton
The Camdenton course sits at 1996 S Business Route 5, just off Highway 5. Eight forest ziplines and a suspension bridge make up the loop, and the tour takes about 2 hours in the linked booking. Helmet, harness, gloves, a BrakeHawk braking system and bottled water come with the ticket. At $89.95 it is the lower-priced of the two options.
Arrive 30 minutes before your slot. Everyone is weighed at check-in, and children can ride from age 4. This course runs in the rain, but a lightning strike nearby pauses it for 30 minutes. If you are staying at the lake, it pairs with Bridal Cave in Camdenton and our Lake of the Ozarks guide.
When to go and what to wear
Branson advertises its ziplines all year. The operator suggests late spring to early autumn, with cooler mornings in summer. Wear closed shoes with the toe and heel covered, and tie back long hair. Leave loose items, scarves and jewelry behind, and do not carry food or drinks on the course. The Branson course closes for thunderstorms or extreme wind.
For Branson, health restrictions include heart, blood pressure, back or neck problems, epilepsy, recent surgery and pregnancy. You need to hold yourself upright in the harness and brake with your hands. The Camdenton booking calls for moderate fitness and advises against participation with back problems, serious heart conditions or pregnancy.
Which course suits you
Pick Camdenton if you are already at the lake, want gear and water included and need the lowest price. Pick Branson if you are staying near West 76 Country Boulevard and want a guided two-hour forest course. Our Branson caves page covers the underground side of that area.
