The best zipline in Maui

Maui's ziplines are spread across the island, and each one does something different: rainforest, speed, ocean views or a quick upcountry flight. Here is how they compare.

West Maui's courses sell the views; the north shore's sell the jungle.

Booking choice: The 8-line jungle zipline, from $177 per person. Check dates Compare the options below

There is no single best zipline on Maui: the right one depends on where you are staying, who is riding and whether you want the jungle or the view. Five courses are bookable on Viator, and none of them includes hotel pickup.

Ratings and prices below are the Viator figures as of September 2026.

The quick answer

For rainforest and families, Jungle Zipline in Haiku (8 lines, 4.9, from $177). For exactly seven lines and the widest limits, NorthShore (4.7, from $155). For the biggest views, Kapalua's dual lines (5.0, from $250). Staying in Ka'anapali, Skyline Ka'anapali; heading upcountry, Skyline Haleakala.

What zipline courses are there on Maui?

Two in Haiku on the north shore, two in West Maui and one upcountry in Kula.

Jungle Zipline: best for rainforest and families

Eight short lines through a rainforest valley just off the Road to Hana, with bridges, snacks and half-price children.

It is the highest rated of the family-friendly courses, takes riders from 6, and suits nervous first-timers because the lines are not high. You will not get the sweeping panoramas of West Maui. See Jungle Zipline prices.

Explore NorthShore's 7-line zipline

Kapalua Ziplines: best for views and the longest course

Six dual lines where you ride side by side, an ATV ride-along up the mountain and a long suspension bridge, rated 5.0.

The Viator listing bills it as the longest zipline course on Maui, about 2 miles in all, with coastal views over West Maui. It costs the most, takes 3.5 hours, and is for ages 10 and up with a 250 lb maximum.

Skyline Ka'anapali: best if you are staying in West Maui

Eight lines across deep ravines in the West Maui Mountains, a short drive from the Ka'anapali resorts.

An off-road ride takes you up the mountain, and the course looks out to Molokai and Lanai. It runs about 3 hours for ages 10 and up (80 to 260 lb), and you hike about half a mile on uneven ground.

Skyline Haleakala: best for a short upcountry flight

A two-hour course on the lower slopes of Haleakala in Kula, for ages 8 and up.

It fits neatly into an upcountry day, and Skyline bills it as the first zipline tour in the United States. The listing title says six lines while its description mentions five, so check the current layout when you book.

Which Maui zipline is best for you?

Match the course to where you are staying and who is riding.

  • Rainforest and gentle lines: Jungle Zipline.
  • Children aged 5, or a rider up to 270 lb: NorthShore.
  • Biggest views, money no object: Kapalua.
  • Staying in Ka'anapali: Skyline Ka'anapali.
  • Heading to Haleakala or Kula: Skyline Haleakala.
  • Driving the Road to Hana: Jungle Zipline, right at the start of it.

Is it worth paying more for Kapalua?

If views and length are the point, yes; for a family morning in the jungle, the Haiku courses give you more for less.

Kapalua costs $250 against $177 for the jungle tour, but runs 3.5 hours including an ATV ride and has the island's top rating. Families with young children cannot ride it anyway (10 and up).
