Are you ready for some 4 wheels ride fun under the sun? Well come on down to Carolina Adventure World “Where to Ride” park. This is an ATV and motocross Mecca few miles from Winnsboro and Interstate 77. It is approximately 30 minutes north of Columbia and 50 minutes south of Charlotte.

At the Carolina Adventure World you can enjoy 100 miles of ATV and dirt biking trails, mud bog racing and 3 adrenaline pumping canopy zip lines. The surroundings are just breath-taking. Make sure to wear plenty of sunscreen and stay hydrated throughout the day.

If you don’t feel ready for the all-terrain bumping-jumping adventure try the zip lines instead. The “Giant” Blue Sky zip line is 1,300 feet long and takes about 45 seconds to ride. It’s fun, smooth and you feel like flying. Not to mention you get the best views of the entire park. This is definitely something the entire family can enjoy throughout the day.

You can rent equipment at the park (is much cheaper during the week: ATV is $90 a day) compared to $140 in the weekend); Tent and RV camping is available and there is a bath house with showers and restrooms on the premises. Adult daily pass is $25 and for kids under 17 is $15; multi-day and annual passes are available as well. The park is open daily from 8 AM to 6 PM.

2009 Update: This season it seems the zipline schedule and prices have changed. As of now only the Giant Blue Sky line is open and only on Saturdays in late afternoon (4-7PM). The price has been also reduced to just $5. To ride all 3 lines and on different days you need advanced group reservations. My advice is to call them ahead at (803)-482-3689.
