Nomads Outdoor Adventure is a
State-of-the-Art High Ropes Course.

---

It's time for an adventure in the tree tops!  At Nomads Outdoor Adventure, you can traverse six adventure trails crafted through nine acres of beautiful woodland. Our trails start on one centrally located platform where you can choose a path suited for your skill level. The challenge levels are yellow (x2), green (x2), blue, and black.  Zip lines will bring you to ground level at the end of trails and will also zigzag across the pond. All of the obstacles are self-guided experiences. Our passive gravity braking system eliminates the need for “hand-braking” or “catchers” at each platform. No need to wait for staff, you are free to enjoy your adventure at your own pace.

Our courses are built entirely in the trees and consist of 13 platforms connected by an average of 14 transitions at varying heights. The paths range from about 12ʻ high all the way to 60’ and will have 84 different elements. The typical platform size is between 5ʼ and 6ʻ wide. The construction of these trails is a combination of galvanized aircraft cable, cedar wood, high tech rope and custom metal hardware. We do not drill into trees, everything is constructed with a state of the art strapping and locking system. This ensures the health of the woodlands for years to come.

Reservations are required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Don't worry, most people have the same questions as you.

How long does it take to complete the adventure experience?

How high will I be off of the ground?

• Our obstacles range in height from 12' to up to 60' off of the ground.
