Hawaii ziplining is easy to misbook because each island has different course formats and eligibility rules. Oʻahu, Maui, Hawaiʻi Island, and Kauaʻi offer distinct versions of the day. This is a selected guide to operators and courses from pages reviewed for this guide. It includes operator links and published price references where available. Live availability, checkout prices, and weather decisions can change before your travel date. Operator lineups change, and older activity pages can remain visible after a course stops booking. Confirm a live date on the operator’s own calendar before organizing transportation around any course. Prices and eligibility details below come from operator pages where stated. The separately labeled Viator links are optional comparison pages, not evidence of an operator’s direct price.

This guide covers three Oʻahu operators in distinct parts of the island.

This is an eight-run course through a working tropical farm above Kahuku. The lines run side by side, so pairs can zip together. Check the CLIMB Works Keana Farms overview for the current tour duration. Check the live CLIMB Works calendar before planning around a price. Riders must be at least 5 years old and 42 inches tall. The maximum weight is 270 pounds, while guests shorter than 5 feet 10 inches must weigh under 250 pounds, per the CLIMB Works FAQ. Pick Keana Farms if side-by-side riding through farm country is the draw.

Kualoa runs seven tandem zipline sections across Kaʻaʻawa Valley, a filming location for Jurassic Park and many other productions. Check the Kualoa Ranch zipline page for current adult and child checkout pricing. Review Kualoa’s current age, weight, height, waist, and upper-thigh limits before booking. These participation rules are enforced at check-in. This is a clean fit if you are already building a Kualoa day around a UTV ride or movie-sites tour. You can also compare Oahu tour options on Viator before committing to a second activity.

Coral Crater has a broad menu of formats on Oʻahu. It sells three-line and six-line tours, plus a night-zipline product. Check its tour comparison page for current formats and checkout pricing. Check the Coral Crater zipline page for the specific product’s current age, weight, schedule, and other requirements.

This guide covers four Maui courses, including two separate Skyline options. The courses below range from a family plantation route to longer mountain runs.

Skyline’s Haleakalā course has six lines and reaches speeds up to 45 mph. Check the Haleakalā 6-Line Zipline Tour page for the current checkout price. Riders must be at least 8 years old and weigh 60 to 260 pounds. Skyline Hawaii at Haleakalā is also listed as an accredited operation by ACCT International. I would put this near the top of the list for a first zipline day. Six lines feels like a full tour without turning the outing into an all-day mission.

Skyline’s separate Kaʻanapali 8-Line Zipline Adventure is the West Maui option. It has an age minimum of 10, unlike the Haleakalā course’s age-8 minimum. Check Skyline’s current Maui tour listings for the live rate, availability, weight range, and other eligibility details.

Kapalua has six all-dual ziplines. The course also has a suspension bridge that the operator calls Hawaiʻi’s largest. The tour includes an ATV rainforest ride-along. Check the Kapalua Ziplines site for the current checkout price. The six-line tour takes about 3.5 hours. Riders must be at least 10 years old, at least 4 feet tall, and weigh 60 to 250 pounds, according to the six-line tour page. Pick this course for long dual-line riding on the Lahaina-Kapalua side. You can also compare Maui tour options on Viator.

Maui Zipline runs a five-line, family-oriented course at Maui Tropical Plantation. Children can participate from age 5, though children under 10 must zip with an adult. Review the Maui Zipline requirements and the plantation’s current tour listing before booking, since availability and pricing can move with the calendar.

The two Hawaiʻi Island operators covered here take different routes. Umauma runs near waterfalls on the Hāmākua Coast. Kohala stays in North Kohala’s forest canopy.

Umauma’s nine-line course runs near and over 14 waterfalls. The operator advertises speeds up to 65 mph. Its official pages showed inconsistent published prices during review, so I am not printing a fixed rate. Check the Umauma Experience site for live availability and pricing. Guests can ride from age 4 and must weigh 35 to 275 pounds. Ages 4 to 12 must ride with a guardian; ages 13 to 17 may participate while a guardian remains on the property. A child who becomes nervous may ride tandem with a trained guide rather than a parent, per Umauma’s FAQ. Umauma also lists Zipline Tour & Transportation and Zip N Dip options. This is the waterfall-and-speed pick, especially if your group has a younger child who meets the operator’s rules.

Kohala’s current Zipline Adventure has five ziplines and two sky bridges. The route includes waterfalls and a spiral tree-based staircase. The operator calls it the only canopy zipline adventure on Hawaiʻi Island. Check the Kohala Zipline course page for the current adult and child pricing. Every rider must be at least 8 years old and weigh 70 to 270 pounds. Kohala also lists a Zipline Giveback option and the Zip & Dip package, which adds lunch, a short hike, and a private waterfall swim. Choose Kohala for a canopy route with bridges and the tree-based staircase rather than a speed-focused course.

This guide covers three Kauaʻi businesses, including several different zipline-inclusive products at Outfitters Kauaʻi. Confirm live inventory on the operator’s own site before building an itinerary around any older course name.

Kōloa runs an active eight-line course near Poʻipū and Kōloa. The operator lists the tour at $162, with a minimum age of 7, on the Kōloa Zipline tour page. Kōloa markets its route as Kauaʻi’s longest zipline course, but Outfitters Kauaʻi makes a competing longest-tour claim for its Nui product. Treat both as marketing labels. Choose by where you are staying and the course layout. Kōloa is the easy fit for a South Shore stay that still leaves the afternoon open.

This is a seven-line course on former plantation land in central Kauaʻi. Kauaʻi Backcountry also runs mountain tubing, but the tubing and zipline products are separate tours. Check the zipline booking page for current prices, participation limits, and dates rather than assuming a standing weekly schedule. If you want to pair it with another activity, compare Kauai tour options on Viator.

Outfitters Kauaʻi lists four zipline-inclusive products on Kīpū Ranch: the six-line Nui tour, the standalone FlyLine, the four-line AdrenaLine water-zip tour, and the full-day Kīpū Safari with a Water Zip. Nui includes a 4,000-foot FlyLine and is marketed by the operator as Kauaʻi’s longest zipline tour. The standalone FlyLine lists from $69. Product rules differ, so use the Outfitters Kauaʻi zipline page to confirm the age requirement, rate, and available departure time for the exact tour. This is the Kauaʻi option for travelers who want a bigger menu than a single standard course.

A rough guide by traveler type:

• Umauma admits riders from age 4. Maui Zipline and CLIMB Works begin at age 5, Coral Crater at 6, and Kōloa at 7. Age alone does not clear a child for a tour; read each operator's physical limits and adult-participation rules before reserving.
• Skyline Haleakalā is a solid first zipline day. Its six-line format and age-8 minimum make the choice simple if everyone fits the published weight range.
• Umauma advertises speeds up to 65 mph over more than 14 waterfalls. For paired riding, CLIMB Works and Kapalua use dual lines.
• Kohala is built around its North Kohala canopy setting. Its route includes sky bridges and a spiral tree-based staircase.
• For a shorter format, compare Outfitters Kauaʻi's standalone FlyLine with Coral Crater's three-line tour. Check live prices before choosing.

Wear closed-toe shoes. Both CLIMB Works and Kapalua require them. Shorts or pants make harnesses easier to manage. Skirts and dresses can be awkward under leg straps.

Do not assume one course’s weight policy applies to another. At CLIMB Works, Kualoa, and Maui Zipline, guests are weighed at check-in. Confirm the course’s full eligibility rules before booking, not in the parking lot.

Rain does not produce one statewide rule. CLIMB Works says tours run rain or shine but may be canceled for thunderstorms, heavy rain, or high winds. Umauma says it operates rain or shine. Read the cancellation terms for your exact booking before stacking a zipline directly against a nonrefundable dinner or another timed tour.

Start with the part of the island you want to see from the harness. Umauma is built around waterfalls, while Kohala stays in canopy. Keana Farms takes the farm-country route. Then choose the course length and eligibility rules that fit your group.
