Overcame Fear

5.00I would rate this a 4.5/5 stars. I absolutely love coming here with friends and family. I even got my best friend, who’s afraid of heights, to even come and she ended up getting over her fear and loved it.
Tree huggers - you can't - keep moving!

5.00Best thing you can do on a nice day in Virginia Beach. Anyone who climbed trees as a kid or wishes they did needs to do this.....and you can do this numerous times. Like a ski resort, lots of slopes to conquer! Perfect for a family with age differences.
Loved it

5.00My daughter was terrified but we talked her into trying it. By the time we left she couldn’t wait to do it again! Amazing staff, great course, all around awesome time!

5.00I am almost 6 feet and 240lbs with arthritis in my knees and hips. As someone who is used to being told you’re too big (I’ve recently lost 140 lbs) I figured I’d give this a go. I was able to complete the green, yellow and purple trails without an issue. My husband who is 264 and 6’2 was also able to complete almost all the trails. I was a first timer and could not have asked to a safer and more fun course to do. Staff is always around and gives you safety instructions and brings you through a how to course prior to letting you go through the main courses. Literally one of the best days of my life as a non scale victory. Amazing staff.
Great time

5.00I initially bought memberships for my young/teenage kids only (as I am over fifty-year old and did not think climbing is for me), then I tried my own climbing and found I can do it and bought membership for myself as well! I and my kids really enjoy the climbing every time, it appears to be a test but also strengthen your whole body (including mind)! The staff/manager are wonderful and they put safety as very high priority and that minimize my concerns.
Great Time!

5.00My daughter and I had a great experience! It was both of our first times doing anything like this and we will definitely be back! The staff were so nice and helpful and everyone around was having the best time. If you plan on doing this I would recommend wearing sneakers and gloves to save your hands lol.
Great time for the Girl Scouts

5.00Came here with my daughter and her Girl Scout troop. The staff were attentive and professional. They made sure that safety was a priority. They were all very friendly and helpful. There was plenty of staff to assist the girls. Thank you so much. I would recommend this business to anyone. I saw lots of families there working together. It’s great treat building. Thank you so much for a great day.
A highlight of our trip!

5.00This was an awesome part of our trip, and definitely a highlight for our boys (7 and 9). They climbed and zipped for 3.5 hours and couldn't stop talking about it. There were lots of helpful employees available, but the best part was the boys felt independent to solve problems and struggle a little bit on their own before being successful, and they felt incredibly proud of themselves and their accomplishments. Spring was a perfect time because it wasn't too hot and it wasn't too crowded. We were staying in Williamsburg but it was definitely worth the drive to come to the adventure park. We did the aquarium beforehand and they loved that too!
