The last stop on the Big Island was Zip-lining in North Kohala. The Eco Adventure Tour took a bunch of us out on a 6 wheeler into the middle of the forest to zip on 8 zip-lines.

Zip lines 1-6 progressively get higher and faster, the guides do a good job of slowly working you up to the last two zips, which are the most epic. At Zip line 6 the group stopped to snack on granola bars made from the locals, macadam nuts and pineapples in a cute little hut next to a huge waterfall. We zipped through the forest, over water falls and walked across a skinny suspended bridge by the time it was all said and done. I even did a few completely upside down (shh!). Then, on the ride back we were all in for a surprise when our driver decided to chase a pig he wanted for dinner, but he got away. These tours are pretty new to the island, I think it was a nice way to end the trip, if you've never been on a zip line before this could be a cool place start.
