What a neat place ! Our family of 15 enjoyed this adventure! The lights were beautiful, 9 of our group did zip lining and had a fantastic experience. Only complaint was the remaining of us went to the lodge to get hot chocolate and they locked the doors 😞

My fiance and I had a wonderful time ziplining and looking at the beautiful Christmas lights! Definitely recommend if you're looking for a fun date night activity! They also have a cute cafe with hot chocolate and a wildlife center that has many different reptiles and birds.

We had a great time! There were four of us, a 55-year old, 26-year old and 7 and 8 year old boys. We did the three ziplines and obstacle course that was bought for the boys for a Christmas gift. We all enjoyed our walk-through of the lights, visiting the birds of prey and the boys enjoyed the reptile room. I appreciated the scripture and telling of Jesus' birth and the reason for the season throughout the path. They had an activity that you fill in as you read the verses and answer the questions along the path. All of it was great fun while enjoying the Christmas lights!

We are first time zip liners . Me, my husband, 9,7, and 5 year old. We did the 3 zips and obstacles. We had no idea how challenging and high those zips were going to be. We loved it ! Our 5 year old on the other side got very emotional on the last zip but Matthew was very kind and patient with him and he was able to complete the course without anymore tears. We also loved the obstacles. My daughter fell on one of the obstacles and someone got to her quickly and kindly and helped her out. She also then wanted to keep going and she completed her level. Overall this place was amazing and exceeded all our expectations! We will be back . Thank you to all the wonderful staff also . Everyone was super helpful and kind.

This was a ton of fun! The workers were incredibly kind and knowledgeable. They definitely made us feel safe. The zip line was super cool but the obstacle course just wasn't for us. There were too many kids shaking the bridges and acting up, but also neither my fiance nor I like heights that much. If you're into heights and physical activity, you'll have a blast. All the kids seemed to be having an amazing time, too. We got our tickets on Groupon and they let us reschedule because it was going to rain our first scheduled day. Def go around 430 so you can see the lights at sunset. It was GORGEOUS. Definitely recommend, especially if you have kids from like 8-14.

Unfortunately we were unable to experience the zip lines due to weather however the escape room was very amusing and fun for our group of family ranging from 10 years to 77. Everyone got involved and helped to solve our puzzle. We all had a great time

Our family visited for the Christmas lights and zip lines. Everyone had a great time and with the reservations it wasn’t overly crowded. They have a snack bar and a walking path lit up as well. This was one of my favorite Christmas lights experiences!

We had such a magical time at Refreshing Mountain! It was snowing while we zip lined which was an added bonus for us! Justin and Tim did a wonderful job assisting all of us!!!! They were both very polite, pleasant, friendly, and just made the experience that much more fun! I highly recommend Refreshing Mountain to anyone! In fact my kids want to return every year for Christmas. Great job!

This was worth it! Drove from Philadelphia on a day trip to visit and had a fun time. It was even snowing and icy but there were many fires and stayed warm by doing the activities. I did axe throwing and zip line. Both were fun and the staff was professional and friendly and helpful. The lights were beautiful! Fun for any age but of course the young and young at heart would have the most fun.

FAQs

What is a zipline Canopy Tour?

A Zip Line Canopy Tour is a series of cables and platforms that take you on an exhilarating tour through forests and wildlife. Canopy Tours were originally created to study different plant life and trees. Now it has become much more about the exciting “ziplining” experience. However, we still try and show the forest and wildlife from a perspective you’ll never forget!

Is ziplining safe?

Your safety is our top priority. Each zipline tour is facilitated by at least two tour guides who have been through extensive training. They will take care of every safety-related detail on the course, so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the rides. Our courses are registered with the PA Department of Agriculture Rides and Measurements Bureau, and they meet/exceed the design standards of ACCT (Association for Challenge Course Technology). One of our guides does a daily “run-through inspection,” a state-certified inspector does a monthly inspection, and once a year, a certified third-party inspector does an inspection. All of our courses use a brake design system that the industry recognizes as the safest approach to braking. Each line is “dialed in” to allow gravity to work as a natural brake. Each line also has a “backup” brake mechanism controlled by our staff, so the participant does not need to worry about slowing themselves down. We use a patented braking/retrieval system called a ZIPKea on each zip line.

Should we tip the tour guides?

There is no tipping expected. There will be at least two guides with your group for the duration of the event, and you can expect that they will be highly professional and safety conscious. They will take good care of your group through the experience, whether you tip them or not!

What physical condition should I be in to participate?

Participants do need to be reasonably fit to participate by the nature of the event. Please see the Activities Release and Waiver Form for more details on this. Still, in general, participants should be able to carry 20-30 lbs of weight without difficulty, climb a flight of stairs, stand without assistance, walk over uneven terrain up and down a moderate slope. See the question below on age, weight, and height restrictions for more detail.

What are the age, weight, and height restrictions for the activities?
  • All activities have a maximum weight of 280 pounds.
  • For most of the “high adventure” activities, individual riders must be at least five years old. 
  • An adult MUST accompany children under 13 for the Challenge and Aerial Excursion. For other activities, an adult need only be present. Please see the AGE RATIO GRID for specifics.
