Giant Canyon Swing at Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park, Glenwood Springs, Co.
Colorado 2014 (Adventure Park, Glenwood Springs) Giant Canyon Swing. This is a two sided swing that seats 4 people. It's a blast! On one side you look down the face of the canyon and on the other you feel like you are being launched into the canyon! Used a GoPro camera and regular canon camera for the video.

Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park
The new Historic Fairy Caves Tour is a 40 minute guided walking tour and is appropriate for most fitness levels. This tour leads you on a quarter-mile-long underground stroll through hidden regions, some of which were only recently excavated.
Discovered in the 1950's, these areas were not previously accessible except to a few hardy cavers willing to crawl and wiggle through them.
Two years in the making, close to 1000 tons of rocky debris were removed by hand with buckets and wheelbarrows to create this amazing cave tour. You'll see highly-decorated rooms and even a section of underground canyon with fifty foot ceilings.
In 1897 the Fairy Caves were one of the first caves in the U.S. to have electric lighting installed. Today's cave tour includes a historic lighting section called History Lane, which is illuminated with replica Edison and Marconi-style light bulbs. You will experience a portion of the Fairy Caves as a visitor would have viewed them over 100 years ago.
Highlights of the tour include: •The Cloud Room with a subaqueous calcite ceiling
•The Head Office, where deeply penetrating tree roots are visible
•The Eternal Towers underground canyon
•A trip through the Darrow Tunnel, which took three years to build, starting in 1897
•Briefly exit the tunnel to visit Exclamation Point, with panoramic views of Glenwood Springs, Glenwood Canyon and the Colorado River
•The Pendant Room with its bulbous formations, carved by air and water
•History Lane historical lighting section, with lighting design based upon Glenwood Springs Historical Society archival photographs
•A candle-lit side trip into the Back Passage Room
•The magnificent Register Room with it's brilliantly-rich saturated colors created by interaction with hot springs waters
•The Reflection Room with formation-reflecting pools reflecting stalactites, stalagmites and soda straw formations
•Views of Jam Crack Passage with rich colors, popcorn-covered stalactites, and beautiful flowstone

Alpine Coaster on-ride HD POV Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park
This was the first alpine coaster to open in the United States in 2005. It's approximately 3,400 feet long, descending some 1,000 feet down the mountainside at speeds up to 25 mph.
Also called mountain coasters, these gravity-operated rides installed on a hill or mountain utilizes a track made of stainless steel tubes. The sleds are designed to not come off of the track during the ride and riders control their speed by applying or releasing brakes connected to levers on each side of the sled.
This video was filmed at full speed throughout the ride.
If you are curious what the ride or the sleds look like, you can view it from above in the Soaring Eagle Zip Ride we posted:
Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park is located in Glenwood Springs, Colorado.

Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park is located on top of Iron Mountain, overlooking Glenwood Springs. After a scenic ride on the Iron Mountain tramway, visitors enjoy visiting Glenwood Caverns and the historic Fairy Caves. Along with these walking tours, the park offers thrill rides. The longest alpine coaster in the state (which is also the nation's first) winds around the mountain. The Giant Canyon Swing, which is the park's most famous ride, is perched on the edge of the Glenwood Canyon, and swings passengers out 1,300 feet above the Colorado River. Also on the canyon edge, there's the Cliffhanger, which is the highest elevation roller coaster in America. The Glenwood Canyon Flyer, the Soaring Eagle zip line ride, and the mine wheel also offer spectacular views of the valley.
