About
Act like a monkey in the Monkey Grove. This fun-filled activity is comparable to rock climbing, but it's on trees. We have three different trees available to climb. You can experience the thrill of climbing straight up a tree as high as you'd like (up to 40 feet) and jumping off. All the while, you're safely attached to an auto-belay system that slowly lowers you back down to solid ground.
The Monkey Grove is suitable for participants weighing between 35 and 300 pounds.
