Royal Gorge Bridge and Park is located in Cañon City, Colorado. Admission to the park is $30 for adults, which includes the park, bridge, gondola and playground.

One of the attractions offered at the park is the Cloudscraper Zipline, which is the highest in America!

Visitors can get to the Zip Line south station one of two ways:
1. ride the gondola from the north side to the south side, and the zipline station is right next door. (this route is highly recommended)
2. walk across the Royal Gorge bridge and uphill to the zipline station.

Tickets can be purchased at the zipline start. When you finish riding there is a video station where you can purchase a memento of your ride across the gorge. Tickets cost $48 (internet price), but you can save a little money if you purchase the Skycoaster/Zipline package.
