The High Ropes Course
The high ropes course is designed to challenge you both physically and mentally, encouraging you to step out of your comfort zone. There are four high rope elements which will test you but which will also leave you feeling awesome when you revel in your success!
- Jacobs Ladder: A towering structure that tests individuals’ strength, coordination and teamwork as they climb rungs progressively further apart, reaching for the top. Conquering this challenge fosters self-belief and promotes cooperation among participants.
- High All-Aboard: This element demands trust, communication and collaboration, as participants work together to ascend a platform and balance on it simultaneously. It pushes individuals to overcome their fears and builds camaraderie among team members.
- Double Trapeze: A thrilling activity that requires individuals to jump from the platform to the trapeze, it challenges participants to conquer their fears of heights and develop confidence in their abilities.
- Crate Stack: An exhilarating test of balance and strategy, the crate stack requires participants to stack crates beneath their feet while maintaining equilibrium. As the stack grows taller, participants must rely on their focus and agility to succeed.
Low Ropes Course
We have three unique low ropes elements, designed by ourselves, to add an extra layer of excitement to the sessions. They have been carefully crafted to provide you with engaging challenges to foster teamwork, communication and problem-solving skills.
- Peg pole traverse: One of the low ropes elements we developed is the peg pole traverse, where participants navigate a series of poles at varying heights, relying on balance and coordination to make their way across. This activity encourages individuals to support each other as they work together to overcome obstacles and reach the other side.
- Mine field: Another thrilling element is the mine field, a team-building exercise that demands trust and effective communication. Participants must navigate through a field filled with imaginary ‘mines’ by relying solely on verbal instructions from their teammates. This activity not only enhances cooperation but also highlights the importance of clear and concise communication.
- Laser maze: Lastly, we created the laser maze, a captivating challenge that requires participants to manoeuvre their way through a web of ‘laser beams’ without touching them. This element tests participants’ agility, problem-solving abilities and focus as they navigate the intricate maze. It offers a unique and immersive experience that adds an element of adventure and intrigue to the ropes course.
