The six courses are named for birds – Pheasant Course (the pheasant is a symbol of Yongin City), White Heron Course, Hawk Course, Red-crowned Crane Course, Eagle Course, and Albatross Course. There are explanations of the birds at each course.

At course 1, an instructor demonstrates zip lining and explains the origin of zip lines. The name ‘zip line’ originates from the zip sound that the pulley suspended on the cable makes when descending.

After instruction, you will depart from the platform with a zzzip sound. You may tremble in the beginning, but you will have greater expectations for the following ride when you arrive at the next platform.

When you fly through the forest, you may worry about colliding with trees since the trees along the zip line course are cut for natural conservation. However, the zip line skims over tree branches to ensure thrills. You can reach out to the trees in the forest, and you will appreciate the blue sky after passing through the forest.
