Choose your jungle zipline tour
In the centre, the jungle tour Viator still files as the 7-line, now eight ziplines. Beside it,
NorthShore Zipline's 7-line course a few miles away, and the shorter 5-line version of the jungle tour.
If you want exactly seven lines, this is Maui's 7-line course, a few miles away in Haiku on the former World War II base known as Camp Maui. Its longest lines run 900 feet at up to 40 mph, the highest reach 70 feet, and there is a suspension bridge between them. It takes riders from age 5 and up to 270 lb, the most generous limits of any course here.
What's included
7 ziplines, aerial transfer points and a suspension bridge
The tour Viator still files under "7-Line Jungle Zipline Tour On Maui". Jungle Zipline Maui now runs it as the full 8-line course through a rainforest valley just off the start of the Road to Hana: eight ziplines, an 85-foot suspension bridge and two swinging bridges, with a water and snack-bar break halfway and chips and drinks at the end. You drive yourself to the base in Haiku.
What's included
8 ziplines, the suspension bridge and two swinging bridges
Helmet, harness and professional guides
Bottled water, snacks halfway, chips and drinks at the end
Children 6 to 14 half price on Viator (with a paying adult)
The same jungle and the same guides as the 8-line tour, cut down to five ziplines and the 85-foot suspension bridge in about an hour and a half. It suits nervous first-timers, younger children and anyone short on time before the drive to Hana, but it costs almost as much as the full course.
Every Maui zipline promises views. The differences that matter are where the course really is,
how many lines you get, and whether everyone in your group fits the age and weight limits.

The 7-Line Jungle Zipline Tour, Now 8 Lines
Jungle Zipline Maui, Haiku (Road to Hana)
8 short jungle lines and bridges; ages 6+, 45 to 250 lb
Prices are Viator from-prices in USD per adult, as of September 2026. Children pay half
price on the jungle tour (ages 6 to 14 on Viator) and a smaller discount at NorthShore. Booked direct, Jungle
Zipline lists $159 for 8 lines and $139 for 5 lines, and NorthShore $149; Viator costs a little more but lets
you cancel free up to 24 hours before. None of the ziplines include hotel pickup, and the Road to Hana app is
priced per vehicle, not per person.
Seven or eight?
The 7-line jungle tour now has eight lines.
The listing most people find is filed on Viator as the "7-Line Jungle Zipline Tour On Maui", and
older reviews still talk about joining the 7-zipline group. Today Jungle Zipline Maui runs its full course
as eight ziplines, with an 85-foot suspension bridge and two swinging bridges, through a rainforest
valley just off the start of the Road to Hana in Haiku. It also sells a 5-line version; an old 4-line
listing is no longer bookable.
So booking the "7-line" jungle tour gets you more, not less. If exactly seven lines matters to you,
that is NorthShore Zipline's course at Camp Maui, a separate company a few miles away with longer,
higher lines. The one thing that catches people out on both is the weigh-in: riders outside the
limits are turned away at check-in with no refund.
8
ziplines on the full jungle course today. The 5-line tour
uses the same valley, and NorthShore's 7-line course is the one with exactly seven.

The base sits in a rainforest valley on Maui's north shore, just past mile marker 3 where the Road to
Hana begins, a short way beyond Twin Falls. Follow the Hana Highway east past Paia, keep on through the
start of the Road to Hana, and take the first left toward the ocean after mile marker 3; the operator
describes it as the third gate on the left. There is no pickup, so you drive yourself, and the tour ends
back at the base.

4.9★★★★★ 1,589 reviews · Jungle Zipline 8-line tour Viator & Tripadvisor, September 2026
★★★★★
I 100% recommend booking the jungle Zipline adventure! Me and my husband went for our anniversary, and out of all of the activities we did in Maui, the zip lining was both our favorites.
★★★★★
Definitely worth the drive from Lahaina! Our three grandchildren (7, 9 and 10) had so much fun zipping around the jungle! Be sure to use bug spray, the mosquitos are out there waiting for you!
★★★★★
There is quite a bit of hiking up steep stairs and hills, so be prepared for that. The lines are short but there are 8 of them so by the end, you will really have a great experience with amazing views.
★★★★★
Easy to find. Gorgeous terrain. We went with our kids (9, 12, 14). I also appreciated the 5-point harnesses, newer lines with braking systems, nice helmets, and snacks and drinks along the way.
★★★★★
My husband gets vertigo on ladders and so we were worried, but the platforms were just short sets of stairs, very easy and comfortable. We did the full 8 lines and I'd recommend all of the 8 because I enjoyed the last 3 the most.
★★★★★
This place is a lot of fun. The jungle is beautiful. The zip lines get better and better. The ocean view is amazing. Bug spray and hand sanitizer were provided which was nice!
★★★★★
We traveled with 3 groups totaling 18 people. This is our 2nd Zipline Tour on Maui and by far our favorite. Beautiful setting, fantastic guides in all 3 groups, exciting lines.
★★★★★
Great guides and great views! Would recommend. Be ready to hike but worth it. Felt very safe in the capable hands of our guides.
★★★★★
The lines were fun and really through the forest. Our guides were so knowledgeable about the zips and the entire island. They knew all the trees and wildlife in the forest.

Carrying on to Hana?
See the Road to Hana without driving
The zipline sits at the very start of the road. For the waterfalls, the black-sand beach and
Hana itself, a small-group day lets you look out of the window instead of at the next hairpin.

The zipline sits at the very start of the Road to Hana. If you would rather someone else took the wheel for the rest of it, this small-group day in a van of up to 10 people covers the waterfalls, the black-sand beach at Wai'anapanapa and the coast to Hana, with hotel pickup, lunch, snacks and the state park entry included.
Maui has several zipline courses, but only one sits in a true rainforest valley at the start
of the Road to Hana. Here is what the "7-line" jungle tour really is today, what it costs, who fits the
limits, and how to fit it into a Maui day.
What the tour is, and what it isn't
Jungle Zipline Maui is a family-run course on a working farm and plant nursery in Haiku, on Maui's green
north shore. The lines run between tree platforms through mango, banyan and passion fruit trees, with ginger and heliconia
along the paths, and there is a suspension bridge strung tree to tree plus two swinging bridges on the full
course. It is not a mountain zipline with huge drops and ocean-wide panoramas, which is what Kapalua and
Ka'anapali sell in West Maui. The lines here are shorter and closer to the canopy, and the charm is being in
the jungle rather than above it. One line does give you a glimpse of the ocean.
Swinging bridges link some of the lines on the full course (illustration).
Seven lines, eight lines, five lines
The name causes the confusion. The Viator listing that most people find is still filed as the
"7-Line Jungle Zipline Tour On Maui", and reviews from a few years ago describe joining the "7 zipline tour
group". The operator now runs that full course as eight ziplines, and sells a 5-line tour on the same site
for people who want something shorter. Guests who did all eight say the last three lines are the best, so the
full tour is the one to book unless time or nerves are short. If you specifically want seven lines, that is
NorthShore Zipline's course at Camp Maui, a separate business a few miles away with fewer, longer and higher
lines.
What it really costs
On Viator the 8-line tour is from $177 per adult and the 5-line from $154. The operator's own site lists
$159 and $139, and on the 8-line tour both sell children at half price with a paying adult (ages 6 to 14 on
Viator, 6 to 16 direct). Viator costs a little more, but you can cancel free up to 24 hours before and reserve
now and pay later. On top of the ticket, budget for fuel for the drive and cash to tip the guides. The
5-line tour costs almost as much as the 8-line on Viator, which is another reason most people take the full
course.
The honest small print: the weigh-in. Riders must be between 45 and 250 lb on the
operator's site (50 to 250 lb on Viator), everyone is weighed at check-in, and there is no refund if someone
is outside the limits. One guest's husband had to sit out after a 90-minute drive. If anyone in your group is
near the top limit, NorthShore Zipline allows up to 270 lb.
Who it suits
Families do well here: children can ride from age 6, the platforms are reached by stairs rather than ladders,
and guides do the braking, so nobody needs to be brave or strong. Reviewers mention grandchildren of 7, 9 and
10 and teenagers enjoying the same tour. You do need to manage stairs, including one steep climb you make
twice, and closed-toe athletic shoes are required. It is not for pregnant guests or anyone with serious back,
neck, joint or heart problems.

Making a day of it
Because the course is at the start of the Road to Hana, it pairs naturally with the north shore. Book a
morning slot, stop at Twin Falls on the way, and head back through Paia for lunch or Ho'okipa to see the
turtles. If you want the whole Road to Hana too, either drive on after the zipline with an audio guide in the
car or give Hana its own day with a guided tour. Staying in Ka'anapali or Wailea, allow about two hours to get
there, as the operator suggests.

Straight answers to what riders ask most about the jungle zipline and Maui's other courses.
Is the 7-line jungle zipline tour still seven lines?
No. Viator still lists it under "7-Line Jungle Zipline Tour On Maui", and older reviews mention the 7-zipline group, but Jungle Zipline Maui now runs the full course as 8 ziplines, plus a shorter 5-line version. If you want exactly seven lines, NorthShore Zipline at Camp Maui runs a 7-line tour a few miles away. See 7-line or 8-line?
How much is the Jungle Zipline tour on Maui?
The 8-line tour is from $177 per adult on Viator, with children 6 to 14 at half price when booked with a paying adult; the 5-line tour is from $154. Booked direct, the operator lists $159 for the 8-line and $139 for the 5-line, so Viator costs more but adds free cancellation up to 24 hours before and pay-later booking. Details in the price guide.
What is the weight limit at Jungle Zipline Maui?
Riders must weigh between 45 and 250 lb (about 20 to 113 kg) on the operator's site; the Viator listing says 50 to 250 lb. Everyone is weighed on site, and if you are outside the limits there is no refund. Guests report being turned away after a long drive, so check before you book. NorthShore Zipline allows up to 270 lb.
How old do you have to be to zipline at Jungle Zipline Maui?
At least 6 years old. The operator asks that children under 13 ride with a guardian or family member aged 16 or over. NorthShore Zipline takes children from 5, and the West Maui and Haleakala courses start at 8 or 10. See weight and age limits on every course.
Where is Jungle Zipline Maui?
At 50 E Waipio Rd, Haiku, just past mile marker 3 at the start of the Road to Hana on Maui's north shore, a short way beyond Twin Falls. There is no hotel pickup: you drive yourself, and the operator suggests leaving about 2 hours before your tour time if you are staying far away. Check in 30 minutes before the start.
How long does the jungle zipline tour take?
About 2 hours for the 8-line course and about 1.5 hours for the 5-line course, plus 30 minutes for check-in and suiting up. You can stay on in the tropical grounds afterwards.
Is the jungle zipline scary?
Less than most people expect. Guests describe the lines as exciting but not very high, the platforms are reached by short sets of stairs rather than ladders, and the guides handle the braking. There is one steep uphill walk on stairs that you do twice.
What should I wear for ziplining on Maui?
Closed-toe athletic or hiking shoes with a heel strap (no sandals, Crocs or slip-on toe shoes), longer shorts, leggings or pants, and hair tied in a low ponytail or braid. Bring bug repellent and cash for tipping the guides. Read what to wear.
Does the jungle zipline include hotel pickup?
No. None of the zipline tours on this page include hotel pickup; you drive to the course. One guest who took an Uber out to Haiku could not find one back, so plan your return before you go.
Jungle Zipline or NorthShore Zipline: which is better?
Both are in Haiku and take about 2 hours. Jungle Zipline has 8 shorter lines through dense rainforest and rates 4.9; NorthShore has 7 longer, higher lines over eucalyptus with ocean views, rates 4.7, and takes younger and heavier riders. Pick the jungle for scenery, NorthShore for speed or a mixed-size group.
What is the best zipline on Maui?
For jungle scenery and family groups, Jungle Zipline in Haiku. For the biggest views and longest lines, Kapalua Ziplines in West Maui (rated 5.0, from $250). Staying in Ka'anapali, Skyline's course is closest; staying upcountry, Skyline Haleakala. Compare them in the best zipline on Maui.
Can I cancel my zipline booking?
Every tour on this page can be cancelled for a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time on Viator. That does not cover being turned away at the weigh-in, so check the weight and age limits first.
