Web Design & Development Project Overview

Valley Zipline Adventures is an outdoor adventure park in Radium Hot Springs, BC, running seven ziplines across the Dry Gulch Valley alongside a three-level aerial park, a fifty-foot free-fall jump tower, a climbing wall, a kids’ course and bungee trampolines. The park had outgrown a site built a decade earlier, and the problem was not appearance — it was that a visitor could not work out what was on offer, what it cost, or how to book it.

Six attractions each got a page, named the way the park names them: the Dry Gulch Traverse, the Ridge Runner, the Kootenay Plunge, the Marmot Climber, Big Horn Bounce and the Big Foot Kids Park, each with its age and weight requirements, its photography and a direct booking button. Nine packages sit above them, several stitched together with neighbouring operators — rafting on the Kicking Horse, paddling, a hot-springs soak. Rezgo stays the booking engine. A Plan Your Visit hub carries hours, directions and safety information, and a service-alert control lets the park post a weather closure across the whole site without touching a layout.

Case study

Deep Dive

What actually went into Valley Zipline Adventures’s build, decision by decision — and the service behind each one.

  • 01

    Call the ride what the park calls it

    A zipline tour, an aerial park and a jump tower are not the same afternoon, and a family deciding between them needs the difference in front of them. Six attractions, six pages, each under the park's own name — the Kootenay Plunge, the Marmot Climber, Big Horn Bounce — with the height and weight limits that decide whether a nine-year-old is coming.

    Nine bundles, some of them somebody else's

    Half the packages cross a property line. Zip & Raft puts a morning on the ziplines beside whitewater on the Kicking Horse, run by another company entirely. Zip & Paddle and Zip & Dip do the same trick with paddling and the hot springs. Each combination is its own page, priced and explained, so a two-business booking reads as one decision.

    Weather closes the park, not the website

    Mountain weather turns and the park shuts for the afternoon. Somebody at the front desk needs to say so everywhere at once, from a phone, without a designer. A single alert control writes the notice site-wide and takes it down again — the specific small thing that decides whether a seasonal business keeps its own site current.

    The booking system was already fine

    Rezgo was working. Waivers, availability, payment — all of it already handled, and none of it broken. Rebuilding a booking engine because it belongs to somebody else is a good way to spend a client's budget on a worse version of what they had. It stayed, and everything around it was built to hand off cleanly.

In their words
Patrick T. — Valley Zipline Adventures★★★★★

Where do I begin. When I decided to renew my business website after ten years, I vetted about a dozen different developers. Bryn stood out from them all and our consultation was extremely thorough and the quote included everything we discussed. I would hands down recommend Becker Design for your next website build. He was easy to work with, kept clear communication and updated me every step of the way. Our new website is exactly what I needed for my business and I don’t regret my decision with work with them whatsoever. Thanks for everything Bryn!
