A great place for outdoor adventures. The zipline course has some impressive views. The mega zip has a breathtaking view is super fun. The guided rafting trip was very fun too. They have several other outdoor activities too, such as mountain biking. They have live music, an outdoor bar/restaurant, chairs where you can relax. You can get in the super cold river to cool off. The changing rooms are clean and are great for changing into or out of your swim suit. Whether you stay on site or are just visiting for the day, you will have a great time and it's a great place to spend all day.

What a great outdoor place. If you’ want to go a white water rafting either solo or with a guided tour This is the place to go. The water is Crystal clear cold and the rapids are class zero to class three. I rented a single duck for the 3 1/2 hour excursion. Equipment will taken care of and the place runs like a well oiled machine

The ropes coarse was fun. The “white” water rafting was relaxing but not adventurous. There photos online are deceptive. There is only one class 3 rapid on the trip. So it isn’t exactly exciting when you expect that the while time.
