At Long Hollow Canopy Tours, every day is an adventure!

Long Hollow Canopy Tours offers thrilling zipline tours and aerial adventure park experiences in the beautiful, wooded hills of Galena Country. The outdoor adventures are designed to be accessible for nearly all levels of fitness and experience, so whether you’re a seasoned adventurer or a first-time zipliner, we’ve got you covered.

Enjoy approximately 2 1/2 hours of thrilling fun on this completely guided canopy tour! The tour begins with an enjoyable UTV ride through the trees to the first platform. The course gets progressively longer starting with shorter zip lines and ending with 3 zip lines over 700 feet long.

Reach speeds up to 40 mph and heights of 75 feet! Rappel off of a platform and venture across our 140-foot sky bridge to reach our final 1,250-foot zip line. For the final challenge element, you can choose to Quick-jump or Rappel!

Guides will share their knowledge on the plants and animals of Northwestern Illinois as well as other tourism attractions in the surrounding area.

Every tour is given an orientation on safety and braking before beginning on the first zip line. Each guest wears a waist and shoulder harness with lanyards that are attached to steel cables at all times while up at height.
