Zipline In Minnesota: Check out the adventurous course at Kerfoot Canopy Tour!

After camping solo in Blue Mounds State Park, hiking along the Gunflint Trail, canoeing into Canada and going on a campervan road trip up the North Shore, I continued my month of Minnesota adventures by soaring over the treetops with the highest rated outdoor activity in Minnesota, ziplining with Kerfoot Canopy Tour!

Whether you’re new to the sport or you’ve done it before, this is the place to zipline in Minnesota.

Seriously, put this activity on your Minnesota bucket list because it lives up to the hype. Here’s everything you need to know about booking an excursion with Kerfoot Canopy Tour.

Kerfoot Canopy Tours

Since opening in 2013, this company has soared countless brave Minnesotans and visitors over the scenic Minnesota river valley from a whopping 170 feet above ground.

One of the longest zips extends 1,200 feet across a ravine!

It’s a great way to get outdoors and appreciate the scenery. And it’s worth noting, Kerfoot Canopy Tours are open year round so you can zip over the autumn tree tops with vibrant fall colors or a snowy landscape in the winter.

Where is Kerfoot Canopy Tours located?

The company is located in Henderson, Minnesota along the Minnesota River Valley Scenic Byway.

Address: 30200 Scenic Byway Rd, Henderson, MN 56044

Drive Times:
35 minutes from Eden Prairie: 
40 minutes from Mankato: 
50 minutes from downtown Minneapolis: 

14-Zipline Tour

I highly recommend doing the 14 zipline tour. They also offer an 8 line track but you’ll be enjoying yourself so much that 14 tracks will fly right by, so opt for the 14 line course.

Great Guides at Kerfoot Canopy Tour

Our guides Austin & Ben were fantastic. They were fun, down to earth and great at communicating how to self brake and get set up before each zipline.
