High Ropes

Welcome to the High Ropes Challenge Course at Camp Cheerful!

The high ropes challenge course is a custom-designed, professionally constructed, fully-accessible activity structure for children and adults with and without disabilities.

One of the most advanced challenge course systems available, the universally accessible 50-foot high "Tango Tower" incorporates two climbing walls, over a dozen ropes activities and more than ten low initiatives, including rappelling devices and cargo nets. Multiple vertical elements create more than 35 unique ways to get to the top. To descend, climbers are lowered on a rope by a two-member belay team or they can glide down the zip line. A hydraulic zip wire system raises and lowers participants, ensuring safety and comfort.

Staffed by professionally-trained facilitators, the high ropes challenge course at Camp Cheerful offers children and adults of all abilities the opportunity to experience new heights of adventure while gaining confidence, building relationships and having fun. Camp Cheerful follows the Association for Challenge Course Technology (ACCT) Challenge Course Standards, inspecting each piece of equipment before and after every climb.

Expertly designed and built by Experiential Resources Inc. of Bloomington, Indiana, a Level 3 Professional Vendor Member of the ACCT, the high ropes course is made possible by the Catanzarite family, tireless advocates and generous supporters of the recreational programs at Camp Cheerful.

Sessions range in length from 40 minutes to four hours and are priced accordingly. Participants must be at least 5 years old and weigh 40 pounds.

High Ropes is an exciting option for companies that are seeking an alternative to the traditional hotel conference room for their group’s annual meeting or team outing. Group packages can be customized to include everything from catering to curriculum development. High Ropes is also available year-round to residential and day campers, non-profit organizations, scout troops, universities, birthday parties and other groups.
