With more than 10 years of experience as a professional writer, Megan holds a degree in Mass Media from her home state of Minnesota. After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
Whether you are visiting the islands or live here permanently, there is one activity that absolutely must be on your Hawaiian Islands bucket list: a ziplining tour. There are incredible ziplining opportunities to be found across the Hawaiian Islands, but today, we’re taking you on a visit to Climb Works. Located on Oahu’s north shore at Keana Farms, Climb Works is home to the longest ziplines on Oahu – and an incredible experience (trust me, my husband and I went for Christmas two years ago).
Before we begin, let me say that absolutely anyone can go ziplining. While you might want to stay away if you’re terrified of heights, ziplining is a perfect activity for anyone who wants a little adventure in their life – or just some incredible aerial views of the islands.
The ziplining tour lasts approximately three hours, and includes eight tandem ziplines, starting with the short and sweet 500-foot line, and ending with the adventure park’s 2,400-foot line.
Climb Works’ long, high, and extra-quiet ziplines are not only extremely safe, but designed so you can witness all of the breathtaking beauty Oahu’s north shore has to offer, from famous beaches and picturesque farms to majestic mountains and lush valleys.
The tour features more than just ziplines, though. The tour begins with a ten minute, two-mile ATV ride up the mountainside, past farms and through the jungle.
Keana Farms produces more than one million pounds of produce each year - including papaya, apple bananas, taro, eggplant, cherry tomatoes. (On our tour back in December 2015, we got to taste the farm’s fresh apple bananas, and now my husband is obsessed with the hybrid fruit.)
Knowledgeable - and fun - guides will teach you about Hawaiian history, culture, and farming at the various education exhibits set up throughout the tour.
You can purchase photographs of yourself afterwards, or even bring your own GoPro.
Wear closed-toe shoes, dress appropriately for the weather, leave your valuables at home, pull back long hair, and prepare for the experience of a lifetime.
What better way to immerse yourself in the Hawaiian jungle than to spend the afternoon zipping through Oahu’s towering trees and lush valleys? Check out this epic promotional video below, but do be warned that you will want to book your ziplining tour immediately after watching this footage.
Climb Works is located at 56 Kamehameha Highway in Kahuku, and you can book your tour – and gather more information – on their website.
