Details
Warrenton, Oregon, rests on the southern edge of the Oregon Coast, where the forest meets the cool coastal breeze, creating a unique outdoor playground. High Life Adventures offers an unconventional twist on adventure here by combining the rush of an 8 Line Zipline Tour with the hands-on challenge of axe throwing.

The 8 Line Tour sends participants soaring across multiple ziplines, flying over lush forest canopies and glimpsing the rugged terrain that marks this coastal region. The lines vary enough to keep adrenaline levels high, and the landscape underfoot reveals sturdy evergreens and wind-sculpted pines typical of Oregon's temperate rainforest edge.
