$45 for Two-Hour Zipline Canopy Tour (Up to $90 Value)

Clients can choose from standard daytime tours or nighttime lantern tours. To prepare for the tour, aspiring cable riders aged 3 and up take in a safety orientation on a low-hanging zipline that safely acquaints novices with the feel and techniques of flight. One by one, riders step into midair to zoom to the next platform along a suspended wire set 20–80 feet above the ground. After traversing more than 10 platforms, riders soar across a mammoth 1,000-foot stretch of cable, reaching speeds of up to 50 miles per hour. Children aged 3–12 can catch a ride for the low price of $40, and tickets can be purchased on location.

Carolina Ziplines Canopy Tour

Standing on a platform, eco-tourists pause to admire the view before stepping from their perch to soar across a high wire and admire the complex ecosystem of animals, plants, and Swiss Family Robinsons that lives in the scenic canopy. This moment—both tranquil and adrenaline-filled—occurs every day at Carolina Ziplines Canopy Tours, where experienced guides lead safely harnessed visitors on excursions through the verdant treetops of the Carolina forests nestled in the shadow of Pilot Mountain, near Hanging Rock State Park. The zipline course weaves from platform to platform, culminating in a 1,000-foot-long uninterrupted soar. After tours, guests can linger to have a picnic on the historic grounds, enjoy a bonfire when the weather’s cool, or even stay overnight in a cozy inn.

The Groupon Guide to: Being Chased by a Man with a Pitchfork

Uh oh, you've done it again. You've angered that old farmer. You're going to have to run if you don't want to end up in the hog trough tonight. Here's the plan:

  • Bust through the back doors of the barn and head east toward the cow pasture. The rising sun will temporarily blind the farmer, causing him to dramatically pause and survey the landscape before pursuing you.

  • Use the time you've bought to jump the cow fence and head through the pasture. Roll underneath one of the cows, causing it to stand up on its hind legs, lift up its udders, and say "excuuuuuse me!"

  • Look behind you to see that the farmer is now pursuing you in a pickup truck, waving his pitchfork out the window. Let him catch you with the pitchfork right under the strap of your overalls and carry you on the pitchfork for about 100 yards.

  • Flail your arms as you dangle from the pitchfork.

  • As the farmer approaches the hogs' mud pile—where he'll surely stop short, flinging you off the pitchfork and into the mud—grab on a low-hanging tree branch. Swing your body off the pitchfork and up onto the branch, so that you can blissfully wave as the farmer looks back at you in surprise and accidentally runs his truck into the mud.

"That darn trickster tricked me into mud-stickin' my truck!"
