Branson Zipline and Canopy Tours Finishes the Gift Shop!

Posted: August 30th, 2010 in Construction Updates

After months of hard work and dedication, we’re excited to announce that our gift shop is finally open to the public. We hope that you will agree with us when we say that the gift shop is not only the perfect place to pick up a souvenir but it’s also charming and unique.

The front of the gift shop has a traditional Amish porch with gorgeous wood benches for you to sit and enjoy the shade. In the back of the gift shop, you will find a large porch with rustic wooden picnic tables where you can watch your friends finish the Blue Streak Fast Line or just enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Ozarks.

On the inside of the gift shop, you will find a charming, old fashioned storefront setting in which we have displayed hundreds of souvenirs and gifts for you to look over. One corner is entirely devoted to Amish foods for you to take home and enjoy while the rest has t-shirts, toys, mugs, hats, picture frames, and many other beautiful items that you can take your time viewing. The gift shop is air conditioned, so you can keep cool while you look around.

We are proud of the quality and content of our gift shop and hope that you will enjoy spending time in it as much as we enjoyed creating it. Make your reservations for a zip line tour, so you can go out on the zip lines while you’re out taking a look at our new gift shop.

Don’t forget to check in for updates on the zip lines and to see pictures of the gift shop as they are posted in the image gallery!

Branson Zipline Continues to Make News

Posted: August 24th, 2010 in Construction Updates

We have already ran features on our blog detailing Branson Zipline and Canopy Tour’s coverage from media outlets ranging from KY3 to the Branson CVB, and now we would like to highlight the most recent Branson Zipline feature presented by KOLR 10.

Just a few days ago, KOLR 10’s Emily Baucum covered the unique experience of zipping through the Ozark Mountains on Wolfe Creek Preserve, with the report covering the ecological preservation of the property while showcasing views of everything from our Ozarks Xplorer Canopy Tour to the exhilarating Blue Streak Fast Line. Those interested in viewing the report can do so here. Additionally, you can view all of the older media reports on Branson Zipline and Canopy Tours from our official site.

But before leaving our blog site, be sure to leave comments and view our extensive image gallery – a visual timeline of the creation of Branson Zipline and Canopy Tours on Wolfe Creek Preserve.

The Sun Sets on Summer at Branson Zipline and Canopy Tours

Posted: August 16th, 2010 in Construction Updates

As we approach our first fall season, we are currently in the process of planning our autumn schedule at Branson Zipline and Canopy Tours, and want to remind guests that the end of August may signal your last chance to experience both our Xplorer in the Dark and Propsector in the Dark canopy tours.

While we have yet to set our official autumn schedule, we currently have both evening zip line options ending by no later than September 11, with options for each tour only available on the weekends.

Even if you have already experienced our day versions of the Ozarks Xplorer or Flying Prospector, our unique ‘in the Dark’ options offer an entirely different atmosphere as you zip through the lush Ozark Mountains surrounded by the charm of sunset.

Aside from currently only being featured on the weekends, these unique zip line experiences also have incredibly limited reservation space with most available dates featuring only one sunset outing per day. Those interested in securing a spot along the last of our summer ‘in the Dark’ tour options are encouraged to visit our official site, and to keep posted to our blog for additional information on our fall schedule and to view photos of our course in our ever-expanding image gallery.
