Reserve your date and time to challenge our five adventure courses. Family owned and operated, Carolina Treetop Challenge is like playing in a treehouse suspended dozens of feet off the ground. We are located just south of downtown Albemarle, North Carolina, near Morrow Mountain State Park on the west side of the Uwharrie National Forest.
Safety is our FIRST and MOST IMPORTANT RULE. All equipment and structures conform to state safety regulations and the guidelines established by the Association for Challenge Course Technology. Everyone participating is required to attend the safety demonstration by our trained instructors prior to starting the course. Carolina Treetop Challenge uses secure, expertly engineered structures, quality materials, and construction by TreeGo, an industry leader in outdoor climbing adventure parks. Our courses undergo continuous inspection, from the equipment to the trees.
