Tree Climb

Who doesn’t like to climb trees? We have modernized the idea with climbing holds attached in a manner that doesn’t hurt the living trees and an automatic self-belay system.

Vertical Drop

The Vertical Drop – is not for those afraid of heights. Climb the 50-foot green tower and decide if you’re brave enough for the Big Drop, which involves 9 feet of freefall followed by a gradual auto-belay down to the ground. Or, start smaller on the Little Drop and its 3 feet of freefall and 30 vertical feet.

Minimum height is 42 inches, maximum weight is 100lbs.

Mini Ropes Course

A parent-guided ropes course for children (ages 6 & under). Kids love this smaller version of our “big” ropes course as it has all the challenges of the adult version without the added height factor. No more than two feet off the ground above a sandbox surface means there are no harnesses and lanyards to mess with. Be sure to bring your toddler along to play in the adjacent sandbox.

Mini Tree Climb

What kid doesn’t like to climb trees? We have modernized the idea with climbing holds attached in a manner that doesn’t hurt the living trees and an automatic self-belay system. This activity is for children 22 lbs and over. Nearby trees also feature the same climbing systems for older kids and adults.
