Picture yourself soaring through the air, testing your limits on an exhilarating aerial obstacle course that'll get your heart pumping! The Open Air Adventure Park transforms ordinary days into extraordinary adventures with its multi-level challenge courses suspended 10 and 21 feet above the ground. Y'know what I love most about this place? It's how it manages to blend the thrill of height with achievable challenges that'll make you feel like a champion.
Having tackled similar courses myself, I can tell you this one's special. The dual-height setup means both newbies and thrill-seekers can find their sweet spot. And honestly? There's nothing quite like that rush of accomplishment when you conquer an obstacle that looked impossible from the ground!

Best Time to Visit
From my experience, early mornings are absolute magic here! The crisp air and smaller crowds make it perfect for getting your adventure on. Summer months between June and August are peak season - the weather's amazing but expect more fellow adventurers sharing the course.
Spring and fall are actually my favorite times to visit. The moderate temperatures make it super comfortable when you're working up a sweat on the obstacles. Plus, the changing seasons add an extra splash of beauty to your experience. If you're hoping to avoid crowds, weekday mornings or late afternoons typically have fewer visitors.
How to Get There
Getting to the Open Air Adventure Park is pretty straightforward. If you're driving, you'll find it just off the main highway with plenty of free parking available. For those using public transportation, several bus routes stop within walking distance of the park. I always recommend checking their website for the most current directions since road work can sometimes change the best route.
Tips for Visiting
Listen up, because these insider tips will seriously level up your adventure! First off, wear comfortable, athletic clothes that you can move freely in - trust me, those skinny jeans aren't gonna cut it up there. Closed-toe shoes are an absolute must, and I learned the hard way that bringing a small water bottle you can clip to your harness is genius.
Book your slot in advance during peak season - nothing worse than showing up excited only to find out they're fully booked! Oh, and arrive about 15 minutes early for your safety briefing. The staff are super thorough with training, which is exactly what you want when you're suspended in the air!
I always tell my friends to eat a light meal beforehand - you don't want a heavy stomach when you're traversing obstacles, but you definitely need energy. And don't forget to bring your camera or phone (with a secure pocket to store it in). The views from up there are totally Instagram-worthy!
One pro tip that most people don't know about: the courses tend to get more challenging as you go clockwise, so if you're a beginner, going counter-clockwise can help you build confidence gradually. Also, pace yourself! You typically get a good chunk of time on the course, so there's no need to rush through everything at once.
For parents bringing kids (they need to be at least 5 years old), start them on the lower course even if they're begging to go higher. It's better to build their confidence gradually - I've seen too many brave kids get overwhelmed on the higher course right off the bat.
If you're visiting in summer, try to avoid the midday heat - the obstacles can get pretty warm to touch, and you'll get tired faster. Early morning or late afternoon sessions are your best bet. And if you're coming with a group, consider booking a private session - it's a bit pricier but totally worth it for the personalized attention and group photos!
Remember to listen to your body and take breaks when needed. The staff are super understanding and will help you get down if you need to - no shame in knowing your limits! And hey, half the fun is watching your friends tackle the obstacles while you catch your breath.
