Where can I go on a Zipline Ride?

Big Sky and West Yellowstone, Montana offer options for ziplining.

  At the base of Big Sky Resort, ride a series of ziplines that meander throughout the lower half of the mountain. Wave to your family below as you fly over the base village area. The ziplines at Big Sky Resort are open during the summer AND winter.
• Yellowstone Raft Zipline and Canopy Tours
  Fly through the trees and even OVER the Gallatin River deep in the Gallatin Canyon, just north of Big Sky (May through September).

Where can I ride a Scenic Chairlift?

A few nearby ski resorts offer scenic chairlift rides that link visitors to fantastic views, hiking trails, downhill mountain biking, and an Alpine Slide.

• Big Sky Resort

• Grand Targhee Resort
  On the quiet side of the Tetons and just east of Teton Valley, Idaho, Grand Targhee offers scenic chairlift rides to the top of Fred's Mountain. From the top, you'll feel like you can reach out and touch the Teton Range. To get back down, just hop back on the lift, follow a hiking trail, or bring your mountain bike and take your pick from a few exciting downhill single-track trails.
• Snow King Resort
  Overlooking downtown Jackson, Wyoming, the chairlift up Snow King Mountain is a great way to kill some time and enjoy epic views. Hike or ride the lift back down. From the base area you can also ride a shorter lift to access the area's only Alpine Slide.
