Description
Climb, swing and dangle in the treetops at Wilderness Run Adventure Course in Banner Elk.
Located beside Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster, the adventure course consists of ropes, logs and planks secured to and suspended from giant wooden tripods.
The course features 28 obstacles with three levels of difficulty: easy, intermediate and hard. Activities include scrambling over cargo nets, scaling rock-climbing structures, and traversing swinging bridges and logs. Participants may advance to more difficult obstacles as they navigate the course, or stay on one level. At the highest point, approximately 40 feet above the ground, guests enjoy views from the crow’s nest and can hop in a swing to get the feeling of floating in midair.
A children’s course, recommended for ages 2 to 5, includes netted tubes, bridges and platforms.
Wilderness Run Adventure Course takes an hour and a half and guests must register online for a check-in time. Height and weight restrictions apply. When visitors arrive, they receive a harness and helmet, and the adventure starts with 10-15 minutes of ground school instruction on technique and safety.
If visitors want to book an alpine coaster ride in conjunction with their adventure course session, the adventure course registration should be arranged first.
Wilderness Run Adventure Course is open seven days a week seasonally from April through October.
