“Located just outside of the city of Helen, we have been able to offer countless guests with exciting adventures. We started out in 2012 as ZipNTime, offering just zip line tours. Each year we have added new activities such as our ATV excursions, giant swing, tree houses, and most recently a 3 level challenge course. Eventually, we re-branded to Nacoochee Adventures to encompass all the activities we offer, but we are still the original owners and operators.” ​

They undergo continuous safety and communication training to ensure you have the best trip possible.

“In the late 70’s, Floyd C. “Doc” Watkins a Professor of Southern Literature at Emory University purchased 34 picturesque acres on the North Oconee River in Lula, Georgia. Doc quickly became friends with his new neighbors, the Wilson’s, whose family owned the property over 100 years ago. In 2000, Doc’s son Kirk and his wife Leah purchased the property. Kirk and Leah had a vision for the Old Mill Farm to become the nucleus of NORTH GEORGIA CANOPY TOURS™. The couple made improvements to the property and purchased additional adjacent land. In 2001, Kirk constructed an amateur 200 foot zip line which gathered mixed reviews from the family and from the cows Bethel Wilson was then keeping on the property.”

“In July 2007, Kirk, Leah, and Leah’s two children vacationed in Costa Rica and enjoyed a canopy tour through the rain forest.  As Kirk and Leah were both afraid of heights, zipping at heights through the canopy in a rain forest was quite a challenge.  This adventure gave impetus to the vision.”

“Kirk and Leah called on professionals to build the REAL Canopy Tour they desired for Old Mill Farm. Soon after their return home, Kirk and Leah purchased 66 adjacent acres.  By October 2007, John Walker of Bonsai-Design visited the property and provided a preliminary course design for a Canopy Tour.  The search for investors began.”

Things to Know Before You Go…

Different tours last different amounts of time, so be sure that you plan your day accordingly.

Most zip line courses and adventures have minimum and maximum height, weight, and age requirements. It would be a good idea to plan ahead and be sure that young children can participate at the location you are choosing to visit or plan for a babysitter if needed.

Be sure that you are prepared when you arrive for your adventure: wear appropriate shoes (not flip-flops) and clothing. Keep an eye on the weather for the day you are planning for your excursion and dress accordingly.  There’s no easier way to take the fun out of an outdoor adventure than by not being dressed warm enough and vice versa.

Most importantly, get out there and have some fun! Every experience is different, so what are you waiting for? Plan your next adventure in the canopies of Northeast Georgia, today!
