Catamount Adventure Park is a self-guided tour, so you can go at your own pace, with the people you want to be with. (Us!)
With nine courses of varying difficulties you are challenged to cross bridges, climb ladders, obstacles and zip lines. Most people that lead an active lifestyle and are in good health should not have any difficulty in completing many of the ropes courses. You are able to proceed at a pace that is comfortable to you, and you can exit the course at many locations. You are also welcome to leave the ropes course and take a break. Unlike the yellow and green courses, the black courses are very challenging.
