It’s no secret that winter in Kentucky can be drab, cold, gray, and not quite as appealing as it is in other months. However, if you look for beauty, you’ll see it, especially when the Bluegrass State is blanketed in snow. When you can get out and play in Kentucky’s majestic snow covered landscape, you should, and there are plenty of adventures from which to choose. If you want to marvel over these sights like never before, try a winter zip line tour in Kentucky. Red River Gorge Zipline Tours offers scenic excursions all year long and it’s a wonderful way to embrace the beauty of winter.
Kentucky's diverse landscape is beautiful in the winter after a picturesque snowfall.
Red River Gorge is particularly scenic and this warm weather hot spot is still a sought after getaway this time of year. You can get in some hiking, stay in a cozy lodge, and eat delicious food, as well as take to the sky on a zip line.
Red River Gorge Zipline Tours is in the heart of Red River Gorge, adjacent to Cliffview Resort.
They offer tours all year long and only cancel for severe winds and thunderstorms. That means you can bundle up and zip through the trees, even in the snow.

5 zip lines that cover nearly 5,000 feet will take you through the Gorge.
You'll fly through the trees at speeds up to 55 mph. The friendly guides will make sure you feel safe and secure and that you have a memorable experience.
As one of the most exhilerating experiences in the Bluegrass, this outing is ideal for those with a sense of adventure. Or if this has always been on your bucket list, a winter zip line tour in Kentucky is a great option.
Of course you'll want to dress appropriately, especially if the snow is falling when you zip.
And even if you do visit in the winter, but there is no snow, you can still experience sweeping views throughout the Gorge. The cold temperatures just add to the sense of adventure.
If you're visiting with a group and don't want to zip, there are spots around the property where you can watch your friends take to the sky.
And if you want to try this winter zip line tour, consider staying at Cliffview Resort, shown in the background of the photo above. There's more information below, but this lodge is the perfect place to get cozy and there are even "stay and play" discounts for guests.
