We stopped at the park to zip line on our recent trip to Oregon. The zip lines were fun and the views were awesome. The guides on the tour were fantastic. They were friendly, informative and obviously enjoyed their job. I think that the zip lines might be a little tame if you were experienced with zip lining. We are not so it was perfect for us (this time).
Had a great time on aerial course. Our group of 3 adults and 3 kids (all tall enough for all courses) had an awesome time. Courses consist of lots of balancing, swings and some zip lines between stages. Very safe. Very well run. Staff was extremely professional and helpful, much better I've experienced at other locations. Note we did not do the zip tour, but the aerial park, which also has some zip lines. Spent over 3 hours, enjoying all the options.
lots of fun for adults and older kid (if you have kids at least 10+ it would be best)Visited OCT 2014 and enjoyed it very much. Mix of zip line and obstacle courses.About an hour from the Portland Airport area, on private property in a small town area. Eat before you go or they have small snacks. Make sure you have reservations. It is their home after all.
I bought the zombie challenge groupon coupon. The staff was super nice. We were attended to as soon as we walked in. The obstacle course was ALOT of fun! My 12 year old daughter and I did that, the tree plunge and the pumpkin drop! We will definitely be back!
If you've never been to a tree-top rope and climbing adventure park, this should definitely be on your "to do" list. There are different levels of difficulty on the ropes courses....all of them are do-able; it's just whether you have confidence in yourself to tackle these adrenalin-packed courses.We went with a group from work, and we all found ourselves cheering each other on, shouting encouragement, and celebrating completion of each course. There is no way to fall - you're tethered to guidelines all the time, but you've got to dig deep to muster the courage to take "that next step".This isn't for the faint of heart or those afraid of heights. But if you've got confidence and balance, and want an incredible adrenalin rush, this is a MUST VISIT adventure.
bring your kids 12 and up for a fantastic time. The older and taller you are, the more you can do here. It was awesome. Great idea for groups of teens, for example. Kids 11-13 might be too scared to take advantage of all the courses, but could enjoy several. Highly recommended activity!!!
We love zip lining parks, and this one was a big disappointment. The kids course is geared best to kids younger than 6 -- it is a small loop and they have very few guides to assist. In fact we had reservations but then they added a bunch of people who showed up at the same time so suddenly there were15 small kids and one guide to help. For those kids that needed help, help was hard to find. The Tween course is bit better, but limited and also a loop. They say it takes 2-2.5 hours, but that is because they give you that amount of time to go again and again on the loop. We expected it would be a unique 2 hour adventure as in other parks we've been to. Our two kids were combined with a day camp trip -- another 30 kids -- and they had to wait 50 minutes for their turn to even get on the first platform (the first hour of their adventure was standing in line). I suspect the adult course and zip lines are better. We won't come back and spend any money on the tween or kids course again.
One of our sons and some grandchildren ages from 10 to 23 had a blast zipping through the very well laid out park. There are some challenging courses for the more adventurous and very easy course for the youngest zippers. We started with fitting gear and an instructional lecture and then a tryout on a sample course before we were let loose to zip around freely. There were guides all around the park to help and ensure safety. The surrounding forest is lovely and shaded well on hot days. We all had a fun, exhilarating day and will do it again.
This was an amazing experience. We drove an hour each way and paid $45pp for 3 full hours of fun!You have to complete mandatory training on some silly courses while the guides watch but once they know you have it down, you're free to go! Equipment felt extremely safe and reliable and the guides , although all VERY young, were helpful and knowledgeable. We were very happy to find out once we completed 2 of the easier courses that we were free to try all of them. Because we are both pretty adventurous and in shape, this meant not having to sit in line with the (over booked) large group we were matched with that was full of very frightened teens. We initially thought we were going to be stuck behind them and were not happy about it.Each course was fun and challenging. As the guide told me, try to do each course as they are designed and don't use your harness or guide cable for assistance unless ya have to! That takes away half rhe fun!There are lot of crazy bridges, swings, rope walks and platforms that require balance, concentration and loads of confidence. The hubby and I both conquered the black (most challenging) course and felt like champions afterwards! It is extremely, very, very tough but totally do-able! We cheered on a teen boy who was behind us and gave him pointers, it was worth it to see the pride on his face when he completed it right behind us. :-)***hint: when doing the really long log bridge on the last red course your best bet is to stay in the middle, arms out like an airplane, get low and RUN! I was the only person in our group to try this and the only one who made it across without help from the ropes or harness! The cheers from below were pretty awesome and the guides made me feel like a savage for trying it that way!
A group of us were staying at the McMenamins Grand Lodge and I had seen on their website a link to Tree to Tree and thought it'd be a fun activity. We had a group of 6 adults and were able to get a discount (bonus!). We arrived early afternoon and spent at least 4 hours climbing, swinging, and balancing in the trees. The staff was hilarious and helpful. The courses were clearly labeled for the difficultly level and the staff was always there to help you decide if you were getting in over your head and offer advice for getting through the obstacles. I'll definitely be going back w/ my daughter.
