NorthShore Zipline Tour: The Adventure You Didn’t Know You Needed on Maui’s North Shore

There’s something magical about seeing Maui from above the deep greens of the jungle canopy, the shimmer of the Pacific Ocean, and that rush of freedom as you glide through the treetops.

Welcome to the North Shore Zipline Tour, a 2-hour adventure that proves Maui isn’t just about beaches and sunsets — it’s about feeling alive.

Set in the historic Camp Maui area on the island’s lush North Shore, this experience combines adrenaline, history, and jaw-dropping views into one unforgettable outing. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker, first-timer, or just looking for something fun to do between beach days, this zipline tour is guaranteed to be one of your favorite Maui memories.

Where Adventure Meets Aloha: The NorthShore Setting

Located just outside of Haiku, the NorthShore Zipline Co. is set on a 1940s World War II Marine training base known as Camp Maui. Today, it’s been transformed into a vibrant outdoor playground surrounded by towering eucalyptus trees, lush jungle, and panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean.

As soon as you arrive, you’ll feel that blend of adventure and nostalgia — the kind of place that makes you want to ditch your flip-flops and jump into something epic.

Your guides greet you with local warmth and a side of humor, easing any nerves you might have before the adventure begins. And if you do get cold feet? Don’t worry — NorthShore offers a “Scaredy-Cat Guarantee”: if you decide ziplining isn’t for you after the first two lines, they’ll give you a full refund. No shame, no judgment, just aloha.

Seven Ziplines of Pure Maui Magic

This isn’t just a quick thrill — it’s a full-on canopy adventure designed for all ages (kids 5+ and up). Over the next two hours, you’ll experience:

• 7 ziplines that soar through giant eucalyptus trees
• Tree-to-tree suspension bridges that sway just enough to make your heart skip
• Aerial platforms that offer sweeping views of Maui’s North Shore and Haleakalā volcano
• State-of-the-art safety gear that lets you focus on fun, not fear

Every line feels different — some are fast, some are scenic, and some offer the perfect chance for that classic “arms wide open” zipline photo moment.

And when the breeze hits your face mid-flight, you’ll understand why ziplining through Maui’s forests is something everyone should try at least once.

Not Just a Zipline — A Piece of Maui’s History

One of the coolest parts about this experience is its location at Camp Maui, the historic site where Marines trained before being deployed during WWII.

Between ziplines, your guides share fascinating tidbits about the area, how it shaped local history and how nature has reclaimed it over time. There’s even a small on-site museum where you can learn more about the island’s military past and see vintage photos, vehicles, and memorabilia.

It’s a rare blend of thrill + culture, and it gives this adventure a deeper layer that sets it apart from other zipline tours.

Views That Take Your Breath Away

As you soar through the trees, you’ll catch glimpses of everything that makes Maui magical — the sparkling blue of the Pacific, the rolling green hills of Upcountry, and even the neighboring island of Molokai on a clear day.

Every moment is a reminder of just how wild and beautiful this island really is.

And when you touch down after the final zip, you’re rewarded with one last surprise: an 80-foot inflatable Slip N’ Slide that’s open (weather permitting). It’s the perfect way to cool off and end your adventure on a laugh.

Why Ziplining in Maui Is a Must-Do

There’s something transformative about seeing the island from above. It’s not just the adrenaline rush — it’s the feeling of connecting with nature, history, and the sheer beauty of Maui all at once.

Ziplining through the North Shore gives you that rare perspective — one that beach days can’t quite capture. It’s a way to see the island’s wild heart, not just its postcard-perfect coastlines.

Plus, it’s accessible, family-friendly, and packed with the kind of laughter and energy that defines the spirit of aloha.

Plan Your Zipline Adventure

Whether you’re a first-time zipliner or a seasoned thrill-seeker, NorthShore Zipline Co. delivers a Maui experience that’s equal parts exciting and unforgettable.

From the first jump off the platform to your final landing back on solid ground, you’ll be grinning ear to ear — and probably planning your next visit before you’ve even left.
