FAQ

Is a ticket required to watch my friends/family climb?

Toggle FAQ

Tickets are only required for guests who wish to climb, there is no entrance fee. Non-climbing visitors are welcome (and encouraged) to walk around the many trails of the park and observe or take pictures! We have benches scattered throughout the walking trails of the park for observers.

What clothing should I wear?

Toggle FAQ

Wear well-fitting clothing that does not allow anything to hang loose or get tangled in cables and rope. Long hair must be tied back and loose jewelry removed. For your safety, fully secured, closed toed shoes are required. We recommend sturdy, rubber-soled shoes such as athletic shoes or hiking boots.

We HIGHLY recommend that you wear protective gloves when climbing at the park. You are welcome to bring your own leather-palmed, protective gloves or you may purchase online or from our retail store.

What equipment is provided?

Toggle FAQ

A climbing harness, needed clips and trolley are provided for your climb.

Can I bring my own climbing equipment?

Toggle FAQ

You are welcome to use your personal gloves but the full body climbing harness, the “smart” interconnected safety clips, and the climbing courses are specially designed to work together as a complete safety system, therefore we are unable to allow personal climbing gear to be used at The Adventure Park. If you have questions or need information about the safety gear we use please feel free to contact us.

Is there a height, age or weight restriction?

Toggle FAQ

Although shorter children may not be able to reach some of the obstacles in the park, there is no height restriction for the trails and zip lines.

Age is restricted to being a child of at least 5, but adults of any age can climb if they are not restricted by their doctors to do so. When climbing as a general admission guest, 5 & 6-year-olds must have an adult (18+) climb with them (max 2 children per adult) and may climb on our Purple courses only.

The Purple, Yellow, Green, and Blue trails have recommendations of parent/adult supervision or participation depending on the age bracket and the course being used. Supervision recommendations can be found on the park Rules page.

The maximum weight permitted per person climbing is 265 pounds.

How difficult are the trails?

Toggle FAQ

The trails range from easiest, Purple, through expert, double Black Diamond. Relative to each person’s ability, the trails are very manageable but become more physically challenging as you progress to more difficult trails. If you have not climbed at our park before, you may be out of your comfort zone at first about being 10 feet above the ground on a Yellow course or 20 feet above the ground at points on a Green course.

You will quickly begin to have fun with the challenges, and the height above the ground will not be your main focus. Your focus becomes being balanced and efficient on each bridge you cross. Our park has the best safety system available on the market as long as your harness is properly on you and you are always attached to your lifeline.
