Some of the Most Popular Activities
Located on the northern portion of campus, next to the serene swamp, the Adventure Course gives campers the chance to set personal goals and tackle challenges while supporting their group. From low ropes obstacles that strengthen teamwork and leadership skills to high ropes challenges that help campers push personal boundaries, the course is designed for growth, fun, and confidence-building.
Our trained Adventure Instructors from Echo Hill Outdoor School ensure the emotional and physical safety of every camper, so each participant can challenge themselves in a supportive and encouraging environment.
High Ropes
Campers may climb the Giant’s Ladder, soar down the Zip Line and be greeted by fellow campers who take part in the landing. Campers can also help hoist classmates with a team belay system in the Giant Swing until the swinger releases, experiencing a brief fall and pendulum swing ride. They may explore the Pathfinder, a climbing wall and cargo net topping out at a trapeze, while other campers coach and aid in the belay system. The Alpine Tower, the first of its kind in the world, sits center stage with a view of the entire course. This triangular “jungle‐gym” with hanging elements leading up to a platform over 50’ from the ground, allows climbers of different abilities to challenge themselves and explore their fears. As many as 18 participants can be involved at one time, thus uniting the individual and group experiences. Only the Alpine Tower is limited to campers 12 and over.
