About Adventure Courses

Climb, balance, swing and explore

Adventure courses go beyond the swing set. Think log steps, balance beams, rope nets, wobbly bridges, climbing towers and stepping posts arranged into a route kids can run again and again.

We design courses to suit your yard and your kids’ ages and abilities, build with sturdy materials and finish with surfacing that cushions falls.
