Lava Zipline Adventure

This adventure company gets everything right! When we first called to make a reservation, we were the only couple, and they didn’t know if there would be enough people to offer the Zip Line adventure. It was pre-season, and we knew that this could happen. However, a few days later, they called us back to let us know that there were enough people, and we booked the Zip Line & Rope Course. In Lava Hot Springs, they showed up in a giant Army truck to pick everyone up. There were a couple of single parents with kids, a few young-ish adults and us (50-something). Every activity was explained very well before we started. The staff were super nice to everyone, and we were told that we’re all one big adventure family for the day. Everyone was kind and respectful, which is not something you can take for granted anymore. There were two zip lines, and everyone got to go twice. As first-timers, we were just absolutely thrilled with the experience. Next, we had the option to do the ninja obstacle course on multiple levels. If you’ve ever watched any obstacle course shows on TV, you get the idea. We walked on ropes, balanced on narrow beams and climbed up and down to get through all kinds of obstacles. Just to make sure: safety was the main concern of the staff (followed closely by “having fun”), and everyone learned how to get around safely. And then they fired up a monster contraption that raised a platform about 60 feet above ground. This was a bonus bungee jump activity for those who were interested, they said. Absolutely everyone did it, and by this time, it was absolutely clear that these guys just wanted everyone to have fun. We did a few more things, but I don’t want to give it all away. All I can say is that we got more than our money’s worth. And we’ll definitely be back.
