Golden Skybridge Attractions to Experience
Railrider Mountain Coaster: Inspired by the railway history of Golden, the Railrider’s tracks guide passengers along a kilometre of alpine scenery. After ascending the mountainside, the thrill begins — riders pick up speed through the forest and along the canyon edge as the coaster curves and turns towards the bottom of the hill over a total vertical descent of 73 metres (240 ft).
Giant Canyon Swing: Sway through the sky with this heart-pumping thrill ride. The Giant Canyon Swing sends brave adventurers free-falling over the canyon’s edge, secured safely by a bungee cord. When the bungee kicks in, you’ll begin to soar smoothly, swinging side-to-side above the rugged terrain below.
Sky Zipline: Adventure-seekers won’t want to miss the 1,000-foot zipline that provides a thrilling ride across the canyon. From 500 feet in the air, you’ll be treated to an incredible bird’s-eye view of the thundering waterfall and rushing river below.
Canyon Edge Challenge Course: Put your strength and stamina to the test with our fun-for-all-ages ropes course. The course features three different courses with varying degrees of difficulty — including an option for kids — so you can climb, balance, sway and swing while suspended up to 40 feet in the air.
Climbing Wall: Navigate your way up our 28-foot rock climbing wall, complete with easy, moderate and challenging routes.
Axe Throwing: Summon your inner lumberjack (no plaid required) as you hurl hatchets down our target range.
Village Grill: Choose from two food trucks on your adventure fuel break. Enjoy delicious burgers, hot dogs, fries, poutine, and grilled cheese at The Treehouse or waffles and ice cream at The Canopy. There’s sure to be something tasty for everyone!
