Screamin' Gator Zip Line at Gatorland

Gatorland, at 14501 S Orange Blossom Trail in south Orlando, is a long-running alligator park that also operates the Screamin' Gator Zip Line, a series of cables that send riders over the park's alligator breeding marsh and wetlands. The zip line is an add-on to park admission and requires a minimum weight and height; riders are fitted with harnesses and helmets and briefed by guides. Prices change by season and package, so confirm current rates and age limits on gatorland.com before travelling. Gatorland is open daily, generally from 10 a.m., with hours varying by season. Loose items must be stored in lockers, and riders wear closed shoes. The park also has an aviary, a reptile show and a walkway above the alligator pond. The ride is about an hour from check-in to completion, and weather can pause operations during storms. Combine the zip line with the park's wildlife shows for a half-day outing. Parking is available on site for a fee, and the park is accessible by LYNX bus along Orange Blossom Trail.
