Are you ready for an outdoor adventure of a lifetime? Head to Pocono TreeVentures!
Located in Stroudsburg PA, in the picturesque foothills of the Pocono Mountains, Pocono TreeVentures offers up an incredible suspended aerial ropes course. With varying levels of difficulty for both kids(ages 4+) and adults, this course is the ultimate playground for thrill seekers of all ages. They are also now home to 1,000 ft. dual racing zip-lines; the Zip Racer!
After grabbing your gear, the friendly and knowledgeable staff helps to fit your harness. Next, it's on to a safety course where you'll learn about the color coded tweezles, and how to attach/secure your clips and trolley (for the zip-line) to the lines. Finally, it's off to explore high above the ground in the trees, in their ropes course that's seemingly, straight off the pages of "Swiss Family Robinson".
Pocono TreeVentures' Aerial ropes course offers 5 levels of difficulty. We started in the beginners course and explored 2 levels that were age appropriate for our children. You can choose to explore the course as far you would like/ feel comfortable with (age permitting). Each level of the course presents a new challenge and the height of the course increases with each advanced level. The peak element is raised 30 feet off the ground! This impressive course is comprised of 66 elements in total, and sits on 14 scenic acres.
This is an amazing confidence builder for kids! As you make your way through the elements of the course, you are completely in control and responsible for attaching / unhooking your own clips and trolley from the lines in the course. Keep in mind, there is staff on-hand if help is needed, however, guests are largely expected to move through the course on their own. It was completely amazing to watch as our children gained more and more confidence in their own abilities and physical capabilities, as they moved through each element of the course!
Overall, our visit to Pocono Tree Ventures was amazing! Friendly knowledgeable staff and awesome course. Truly, an adventure like no-other! We will definitely be returning for more fun with the kids this fall!
