The Shepherd of the Hills Vigilante ZipRider is a thrilling ride that lets visitors get a bird’s eye view of the Ozarks. When I visited the newly opened attraction, I was ready to experience an adrenaline pumping downhill ride over The Shepherd of the Hills’ 160 acre homestead. There are currently 10 ZipRider attractions in the world, but the Vigilante ZipRider Attraction features the world’s highest tower launch from 230 feet in the air, atop Inspiration Tower. It was sure to be a wild ride!My fellow companions and I signed consent forms and then traveled in a glass elevator to the top of Inspiration Tower, where we would launch from its open air deck. While we waited for our ride to begin, we had a fantastic view of the Ozark Mountains and were able to see other riders enjoy their journey as well. Once it was our turn, we entered the open air deck, boarded one of the four seated zip lines and eagerly waited for our experience.
The ½ mile ride, during which you can reach speeds up to 50mph, is definitely a rush and well worth the $29 admission fee. It is entirely different from a regular zipline experience and gives one the feeling of being weightless and entirely free to enjoy the view. On a ZipRider ride, guests have no responsibility other than to enjoy the ride.
The Shepherd of the Hills Vigilante ZipRider is an exciting attraction every Branson visitor will enjoy.
