The Glenwood Canyon Flyer is perched on the edge of Glenwood Canyon, right between the Giant Canyon Swing and the Cliffhanger Roller Coaster.

Fun fact. The Glenwood Canyon Flyer opened on May 23, 2014. It was built in Italy, then disassembled and shipped across the Atlantic to Houston, taken to Denver by train, and trucked across the Continental Divide to Glenwood Springs. There are no lengths (or heights) Glenwood Caverns won’t go to for high flying fun!

Occasionally rides are closed due to maintenance or weather. Check our rides and attractions status to see that your favorite rides are open.
