What is an Adventure Park?
An aerial forest rope course consisting of platforms that have been installed in the trees with ropes and cables connecting them to form "bridges" or "canopy tours". The objective is to move from tree platform to tree platform walking over the different secured bridges to complete the ropes course. There are some small scale zip lines throughout the eight different courses. Each ropes course will have a different degree of difficulty. There are no motorized rides in the park. Our park is all about active participation. While on the courses you are fully secured by your harness at all times, it is all about thrills, chills, but no spills.
Do I have to be really fit to do the course?
Most people that lead an active lifestyle and are in good health should not have any difficulty in completing many of the ropes courses. You are able to proceed at a pace that is comfortable to you, and you can exit the course at many locations. You are also welcome to leave the ropes course and take a break. Unlike the yellow and green courses, the black courses are very challenging.
How difficult are the ropes courses?
The ropes courses range from beginner to physically challenging.
Is the Adventure Park certified?
The park will be inspected and licensed by the Deptartment of Public Safety. It has been designed by Swiss experts and constructed by professionals.
What food services are available? Will there be a bar?

Hours of the Tavern will be 11am-5pm on the same days. Alcohol will not be sold to park users prior to the expiration time noted on their park ticket unless their ticket has been relinquished for the day. Sodas, snacks and ice cream will be available every day thru vending machines.
Are we allowed to bring our own food?

What clothing should I wear?

Can the rope courses operate in the rain?
The adventure park can actually be a lot of fun when it's raining, however we will need to close for thunderstorms. Call ahead to confirm the operating schedule when rain/thunderstorms are in the forecast.
What equipment is provided?

- Guides are familiar with all courses. Since our courses are designed for "self-discovery," Guides are not intended as instructors, nor can they provide any physical assistance with activities or rescue. Rather guides provide some added "Ariel" supervision. For some individuals it is just more fun to climb with another person.
- Our courses are intentionally designed for self-discovery making guides unnecessary compared to many other courses that are offered elsewhere throughout the world.
