Over the next couple of weeks, outdoor activities will slowly start to open to welcome the first guests of the season. Here are some important dates:

 

  • The Appalachian Express Mountain Coaster will open April 8. The coaster features a 4,500-foot steel track with passenger cars zooming down the steep slopes of the mountain.
  • On Saturday, April 16, the 1,000-foot Double Barrel Zipline will open, allowing guests to take the plunge down the mountain and zip through trees more than eight stories above the ground.
  • At Euro Bungee, guests can show off their flips and tricks during a four-minute jump. This attraction is set to open April 30.
  • Another activity coming back on April 30 is the Mountain Segway /UTV (Utility Task Vehicle) Tour. The tour takes guests on an off-road adventure through the forest, where they can experience stunning scenic views.

 

Guests looking to experience these adventures must buy tickets online beforehand.
