100% worth my 1 hour drive from Minneapolis. Carlie our guide was very sweet, friendly, and helpful. She’s very good with encouraging young kids and adults like us who were a bit scared when we got to the higher platform. The instructions she gave were very clear and easy to follow. She’s always there to help us when we needed some help. Definitely will be coming back here again! She even took photos for us too. The course took way longer than I thought to finish. I thought this would be like 1 hour max, but if you actually want to try everything, it’d be around 2-3 hours. There’s water station by the course, and snacks for sale in the check in area. Make sure to put on some sunscreen and maybe bring some food or snack!

My husband and I came to have a adventure date and boy.it was! Amazing helpful caring and intelligent staff. Mary & Caleb we're exceptional guides and instructors! We had a blast and it was so beautiful! Great pricing and great amount of time to learn and enjoy!

What an incredible experience for people of all ages! It is great for group or team building, birthday parties or dates! The zip lining takes you through the trees and valley. The ropes course offers a wide variety of obstacles and is worth the trip even if you don’t go zip lining! The instructors know their stuff and will take good care of you! If you have a GoPro, they will mount it to a helmet for your adventure! Definitely recommend you check it out, plan to spend a good 4 hours zipping and climbing!

We had amazing time with rope course and zip lining. Amanda and Shauna were great , it was my first time and both of them were so supportive. Both of them were very experienced so I felt very safe . They were so nice and funny. My family and I had so much fun.

What a great experience! We completed the zip line course to cross off our bucket list. David and Josiah were great instructors - super friendly, answered any questions we had, gave us helpful feedback to ensure a smooth journey and had a surplus of “dad jokes” to share! Also, shout out Caleb for driving and even going the extra mile to grabbing water back at checkin to splash out sweat and bug spray out of our eyes. As first timers, this is the best place to experience zip-lining - we’re hooked! Thank you all so much for the wonderful experience!

What an amazing experience! David, Amy, & Maddie were amazing guides! Fun, knowledgeable, and they made the zip lining adventure one we will never forget. Will definitely be back!

It was very fun it had 14 fun fast and high ziplines the guides were great and everyone in our group loved it. The best zipline was Kong that is 175 feet on the air and pretty long. And a close second was shootout where you went 40 mph trough the forest. The course also had great views and amazing scenery. Four stars out of five would recommend.

We had a great time doing the 14 zip lines. We had two guides that were absolutely fabulous. They had a great sense of humor and they definitely knew what they were doing. Thank you, Ava and Kaylie… you guys rocked! Would definitely recommend
