Add some adventure to your next West Coast getaway with a moonlit zipline experience in the San Gabriel Mountains. Located about 75 miles from Los Angeles near Mountain High Resort, north of Rancho Cucamonga, Ziplines at Pacific Crest operates a variety of guided tours, including the new Full Moon Tour.
The Full Moon Tour departs at 7 p.m. and is priced at $150 per person. Under the glow of moonlight, participants glide through forested mountain canopies, offering a striking and different perspective on this well-known winter resort area.
Mountain High’s dramatic terrain becomes especially atmospheric after dark. The zipline course connects a series of distinct platforms using sky bridges, stairways, rappels, short trails and, of course, ziplines. Platform heights vary from roughly 200 to 1,500 feet above the ground, with routes that traverse varied landscapes and include at least one sweeping line directly above the canyon floor.
The evening setting brings cooler temperatures and clear views of the night sky, making the experience ideal for those who want an active, scenic outing with a touch of nocturnal magic. Guided staff provide safety briefings and assistance so guests can focus on the thrill and scenery as they move from one section of the course to the next.
This moonlit zipline tour is well suited to outdoor enthusiasts and adventurous travelers seeking a memorable way to explore the iconic San Gabriel Mountains after sunset. The combination of high-elevation platforms, long-line glides and the quiet of night creates a unique vantage point to appreciate the region’s natural beauty.
Participants should dress for cooler evening temperatures and wear closed-toe shoes suitable for hiking and climbing. Tours run according to scheduled nights and weather conditions, and advanced reservations are recommended to secure a spot on popular dates such as full-moon evenings.
