If you want to build confidence and develop teamwork in your group, you may opt to utilize our ROPES course.  Whether it's the confidence developed as you maneuver through obstacles thirty feet off the ground or the teamwork required to complete our "Adventure Program, your group is sure to come away feeling better about themselves and each other.  Your group's safety is ensured as you utilize our certified ROPES coordinators and equipment that is maintained daily to ensure its reliability.

High Ropes

Using harnesses, helmets, cables, ropes and wooden beams strung among trees or poles, teams explore risk-taking, trust and coaching. Each moment is rich with discoveries, whether you’re climbing, simply encouraging others or “on belay.”

Participants appreciate the opportunity to interact with their teammates in a very different and powerful way. Our facilitators establish the context for each activity, monitor participant’s safety and help the team recognize valuable insights throughout the day.

The high ropes elements are up in the trees so the perceived risk is high, but actual risk is low. Participants walk across cable bridges, negotiate giant ladders or ride zip lines through the trees as they overcome personal fears and develop new self confidence.

Low Ropes

The low ropes elements are close to the ground so the perceived risk is low, but still challenging to complete. Participants walk tightropes, negotiate obstacles, climb walls, and pass teammates through a giant web.

Participants gradually expand their comfort zones and recognize fears that may block personal achievement. Each challenge draws upon team members to actively support each other.
