Camp Kern announced its building a new attraction that's expected to draw thousands of people to the area.

YMCA leaders showed off plans for Ozone Zipline Adventures Wednesday morning.

The zipline course will include two miles of zips around the Y's Camp Kern.

While you zip, you'll get an educational eco and historical tour of the area.

The course will go over ravines and even the Little Miami River.

The lines will be up to 2,000 feet long and 170 feet above the ground. That will make Ozone Zipline Adventures the largest zipline in the Midwest.

The experience will cost $75 a person.

Officials say the profit will subsidize Camp Kern programs that are offered to middle school students around the area.

Construction is slated to begin in two weeks.

The zipline is scheduled to open Memorial Day weekend.
