Pro Tips

  1. 1.Book your time slot online in advance, especially for Saturday visits, as courses can fill up quickly during peak hours
  2. 2.Wear closed-toe athletic shoes (required) and comfortable clothes that can get dirty - avoid loose jewelry or scarves that could catch on equipment
  3. 3.Arrive 30 minutes early for the safety briefing and harness fitting, which is mandatory before accessing the courses
  4. 4.Bring water bottles and sunscreen, as you'll be outdoors for several hours with limited shade on some courses
  5. 5.Consider starting with an easier course first to build confidence before attempting the more challenging zip lines

Best Time to Visit

Visit on Sunday mornings right at opening (noon) for smaller crowds, or Saturday mornings in spring or fall when temperatures are mild (60-75°F). Avoid summer afternoons when Texas heat can be intense, and note the limited weekend-only schedule.

What to Know

Reservations are required and pricing varies by course level (typically $35-65 per person). Participants must complete a waiver, and there are weight limits (usually 250 lbs maximum). Plan for 2-3 hours including training time, and note there's limited food on-site so eat beforehand.

Seasonal Notes

Best visited in spring (March-May) and fall (October-November) when temperatures are comfortable. Summer visits can be hot, so opt for Sunday openings when available. The park is only open weekends (Saturday 10am-5pm, Sunday 12pm-5pm) and closed Monday-Friday. Check for holiday closures and weather-related cancellations, especially during winter months.

Nearby Eats

Head to Lockhart Smokehouse BBQ (about 15 minutes away) for authentic Texas barbecue that kids love, or visit Torchy's Tacos on South Hampton Road for creative, kid-friendly taco options in a casual atmosphere.
