This world-class adventure, celebrated as a TripAdvisor Top Ten Worldwide Attraction, invites outdoor enthusiasts to embark on an unforgettable journey across two distinct courses - the Fins and Woods - each offering a unique perspective on the rugged beauty of the Colorado wilderness. The Fins Course propels you through a thrilling voyage that soars above and between towering rock formations, known locally as "The Fins." This course captures the essence of high-altitude excitement, featuring zip lines that stretch across vast canyons, offering panoramic views that will leave you breathless. The Fins Course is an architectural marvel, blending seamlessly with the natural topography to provide an adrenaline rush like no other. Participants glide at dizzying heights, with each zip line offering a new vantage point of the stunning landscape below, including glimpses of the Broadmoor Seven Falls, a series of cascading waterfalls that embody the wild heart of Colorado. The Fins Course includes:
  • 5 ziplines, 250 to 1800 ft long
  • Heights of 500 ft
  • 2 rope bridges
  • 180 ft assisted rappel
  The Woods Course: Offers a contrasting experience, inviting guests to zip through the lush canopy of the Pike National Forest. This course is a testament to the serene beauty of the Colorado woodlands, with zip lines and suspension bridges that meander through the dense forest, over creeks, and past wildlife. It's an immersive nature experience that combines the thrill of zip-lining with the tranquil beauty of the forest landscape, making it perfect for those who seek both adventure and a deep connection with nature.
Combo Course Zip Line Tour:  If just one of our Colorado Springs zip line courses is not enough, you have the option to do the Combo Course! Enjoy the beauty and features of both zip line courses, all in the same day! After a quick drive up the mountain, you will be geared up and start Ground School. You will learn and practice all the essentials for ziplining. The Combo course begins with two 300 foot ziplines on the Woods Course. After a quick walk, you will embark on 2 zips traversing a 150 ft deep canyon. Make sure to look down to see Midnight Falls! Your guides will then hook you up to the second longest zip of the day. Make sure to take in the views of the forest below as you land on the platform 1500 ft away.After finishing the Woods Course, you will have a 10-15 minute hike to reach the sixth zipline and enter the Fins Course. You are only one zip away from the iconic rope bridges. Get excited! The two 200 ft bridges traverse the rock fins that give the course it’s name. Test your nerves by walking across without holding onto the sides! As you cross the seventh zip, you will reach the highest point of 505 ft and see some of the most impressive views of the day. You will land on a platform suspended on the side of a cliff.
  • 8 ziplines, 250 to 1800 ft long
  • Heights of 500 ft
  • 25 min hike between courses
  • 2 rope bridges
  • 180 ft assisted rappel
  Cog and Zip Package: For those looking to maximize their adventure, The Broadmoor Soaring Adventure presents an unparalleled opportunity to pair a morning ascent to the summit of Pikes Peak aboard the COG Railway with an afternoon of zip-lining. This unique combination allows adventurers to start their day with a scenic railway journey up Pikes Peak, known as "America's Mountain." The COG Railway, with its steep ascent and breathtaking views, provides a memorable experience, culminating in stunning panoramas from the summit. After soaking in the views and perhaps enjoying a famous Pikes Peak doughnut, guests can descend to engage in the thrilling zip line courses in the afternoon, making for a day of adventure that encapsulates the best of Colorado Springs.   The Broadmoor Soaring Adventure stands out not only for its exhilarating courses but also for its commitment to safety and environmental stewardship. Expert guides ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants, making it accessible to adventure seekers of all skill levels.

Fins Course Zip Line

FINS COURSE ZIPLINE There is no better way to experience the Front Range than by zipline. Come experience one of the top zipline courses in the world! The Fins Course is our more extreme option with added exposure, steep drops, and high altitude zip lining. For a milder option, check out our Woods Course. If you want to experience both courses, check out the Combo Course! 5 ziplines, 250 to 1800 ft long Heights of 500 ft 2 rope bridges 180 ft assisted rappel The tour starts much like the Woods Course with two warm up zips before getting into the cliff condition style zips that gradually get longer and longer. The third zip offers an excellent view of the Seven Falls Canyon and Colorado Springs as you land near the rock “fins”. These fin like formations are the inspiration for the name of this course! From the cliff side, you will walk over a 200 foot rope bridge to the eastern fin. From there, you can see just how large the Broadmoor and Colorado Springs are.  After taking in the views and walking the second bridge, you will find yourself zipping 1,160 feet across the canyon to the south side of Mt. Cutler! Your heartbeat begins to rise as you cross over the canyon road 509 feet below before landing on the cliff side. As you catch your breath and look up and down the Seven Falls canyon, your guides will begin to clip you into the final zip. Prepare to zip 1,800 feet up the canyon! Don’t forget to look down at the park visitors below! If the fifth zip wasn’t enough, we have added a unique ending to the Fins course. You will end the tour with a 180 foot assisted rappel to the canyon floor.  Those visiting Seven Falls will watch in amazement as you rappel off the ridge.
To finish an exciting couple hours in the mountains, you will get to enjoy the Seven Falls park and restaurant 1858 at your leisure. When you are finished, make your way to the entrance of the park to catch a shuttle back to the Broadmoor.

Colorado Springs Falconry at The Broadmoor

Falconry Experience

WHAT IS FALCONRY? Falconry, the art of flying trained birds of prey after wild quarry, is alive and well in the United States. Imagine the thrill of walking through a field with a falcon flying above your head at 1,000 feet or higher. She is waiting for you to flush a pheasant from the bushes. You know it is there because your well trained pointers have indicated. When the falcon is in the proper position, you flush the game, the falcon turns and begins its head first dive. Your adrenaline is rushing. The next thing you know, the falcon hits the pheasant in the air, binds to it, then carries it to the ground where she will patiently await her reward. This is Falconry….

Picture yourself walking through a field hitting every piece of brush and trying to flush out rabbits. Your Harris Hawk follows you from tree to tree, waiting and anticipating the flushing of game. Suddenly a rabbit breaks from the brush, the hawk quickly takes off, and turns to chase the rabbit in aggressive pursuit. Eventually the rabbit out maneuvers the hawk, he turns in mid-air and returns to your glove for a small reward.

This is Falconry….

THE SPORT OF KINGS.   Historically, falconry was used as status symbol for the nobles of Medieval Europe, Middle East, and Mongolian Empire. The sport was mainly restricted to these classes due to the commitment of time, money, and space. Although the nobles would not train the birds themselves, they would pay Master Falconers extravagant sums of money. The Master of the Mews was in charge of obtaining, grooming, and keeping the best hawks in constant readiness for hunting. Thus, Falconry became the Sport of Kings!Within nomadic societies, birds of prey were not a status symbol. Instead, falcons were trapped and used to hunt small game during the winter months. These falcons helped to supplement their very limited diet.

Falconry Experiences

Beginners Lesson

The Broadmoor Falconry Beginners Lesson offers guests the rare opportunity to experience the 4,000-year-old sport of falconry, or “the sport of kings”. This incredible beginners lesson allows you to feel the thrill of working with majestic birds of prey. Most of our lesson takes place against the backdrop of Colorado Springs, one of the most scenic areas in the country. You will get the chance to interact with a variety of captive-bred, trained birds, including owls, falcons, and hawks.The lesson begins with a flying demonstration and a chance to learn about the fascinating history of this sport. You will be transported to our mews where you will meet the rest of our birds. After learning the appropriate techniques from our professional guides, you will get to hold a trained hawk on your fist. This lesson is truly a once in a lifetime experience!

Intermediate Lesson. Once you’ve had a taste of falconry during the beginner’s lesson, you’ll want to book an intermediate lesson — an amazing, hands-on excursion with a trained Harris Hawk. Accompanied by an expert guide, you’ll venture out onto one of The Broadmoor’s scenic trails.Once there, you will don a falconry glove, and have a trained hawk placed on your gloved fist. Under supervision of our expert, you will cast the hawk into a nearby pine and watch as it follows you from tree to tree, returning right to your glove for a small reward. This is a once in a lifetime experience.

After the second zip, there will be a short walk to the third line where the terrain opens up into a perfect setting looking up and down the canyon.  Standing on top of the granite rock formation, you can revel in the gorgeous scenery before taking your first airy 467-foot ride over the creek 150 feet below.  As you slow down for the landing, you will notice a natural arch to their left just before touching down. As the excitement begins to spread, your guides will lead your group back across the canyon, touching down above Midnight Falls. Here, you will get a birds’ eye view of the area behind the falls as they stand on one of the highest points in the Seven Falls area. You will finish the Woods Course by zipping 1,500 feet above the hiking trails below to the final platform.
After degearing, you will say goodbye to your guides! You are free to explore the park at your leisure. But, your guides will give you instructions on how to make your way to the entrance of the park and back to the Broadmoor. You will have a short hike and walk down the 224 steps in front of the Seven Falls. To finish an exciting couple hours in the mountains, you will get to enjoy the Seven Falls park and restaurant 1858 at your leisure. When you are finished, make your way to the entrance of the park to catch a shuttle back to the Broadmoor.
