In 1882, James Hull, upset that the gorgeous sights around Seven Falls and South Cheyenne Canyon were being ruined by lumberjacks cutting down trees, purchased hundreds of acres around the waterfalls and canyon. He was an early American environmentalist but also a shrewd businessman, and he turned Seven Falls into a scenic resort.

Guests can also navigate the terrain with a more modern approach: ziplining. The Broadmoor Soaring Adventure Woods Course consists of 10 ziplines that hang above the canyon, providing breathtaking views. Two courses take tourists along different routes that traverse over, among other things, Midnight Falls, valleys, a natural granite arch, jagged cliffs, and the canyon. Guests also travel across rope bridges and rappel down for a better view of the canyon and to pick up any sunglasses that jumped ship.
