Combine the beautiful vistas and horizons of 160 acres of the Pembina Valley with the thrill and exhilaration of flying up to 200 above it of it with a warm Summer breeze enveloping you, and you have one captured one of the many experiences your family will have at Hywire Zipline Adventures.
The family owned business, located a few miles south of Kaleida off Highway 3, offers a five cable tour, and an eight cable tour, with Manitoba’s highest and longest ziplines.
"Hywire is a family operated business that we started in 2008," explained owner and operator Adam Brown. "Our main focus is on ziplining, but we do offer other activities."
More on those other activities in a moment, first some of the facts and figures behind those ziplines.
"It took roughly five years to plan and build zipline," said Brown. "AJP Engineers helped us plan and design the course. Our longest, and highest zipline, is on the 8-line tour, and is 200 feet high and 1,500 feet long."
And the view from those tours are as scenic and as beautiful as it gets, with you soaring high above the trees and over the ravines of the Pembina Valley.
Back to those other activities. and there are a lot of them for your family to enjoy when you are taking a break from flying like one of the many raptors that migrate through the region every year.
"We offer 18 hole mini golf, a space ball ride, sand volleyball, camping, hiking, suspension bridge," noted Brown. "We're working on a high ropes course and a swimming dugout."
And after creating memories that will last a lifetime, you and the kids may want to take it easy for a bit, and Zippies Diner and Bar is the perfect place to reflect on the day and get a bit to eat.
"The diner has been around for four years, and is a licensed venue, serving food and drinks, with a patio over looking part of the Valley." he said.
And with Summer here, Hywire Zipline Adventures is offering a special on Fridays. Date night is for couples, and is a tour on the 8-line ziplines, that includes dinner and drinks, plus a round of golf.
