Gatorland's Screamin Gator Zip Line: All You Need to Know
What is the Gatorland Screamin Zip Line?
The Gatorland zipline ride navigates tower to tower to different checkpoints as you slowly are introduced to wildlife, longer distances, and higher altitudes.
This means that at the beginning you will be ziplining over small buildings, and by the end of the ride you'll be ziplining over the alligator breeding marsh, which contains 100+ gators.
This provides a nice change of pace, incrementally upping the difficulty and sights rather than jumping straight into it.
This zipline ride also contains a swinging/suspension bridge where you will use your balance to walk to the other side!
Duration - 2 hours.
