Course Safety

Climbing our aerial adventure park is an extremely safe activity as long as all of the Course Rules are followed. All climbers must follow the safety instructions from our expert park monitors and guides.

TreeHoppers set the gold standard for aerial adventure park course construction and management in Central Florida, with the following:

  • Our course was engineered to adhere to all industry standards for maximum loads and forces.

  • TreeHoppers was constructed by an expert team of fabricators, meeting or exceeding industry standard construction.

  • Each of our park monitors and guides receive a rigorous, ACCT-derived training program to fully prepare them for any scenario they may encounter.

  • Daily inspections of both aerial and ground elements take place before a single customer climbs in the park.

  • Climbing harnesses are provided to each participant. These are the same types of harnesses used by professional climbers throughout the world. Each customer is personally fitted by our expert park monitors and guides to ensure a snug, safe fit.

  • We use the high-quality KONG COUDOU PRO continuous belay climbing system. Once you enter the lifeline, it is impossible to accidentally disconnect before the end of the course. It is very easy to use and receives the best classification (class E PAH norms) for maximum safety as all our devices are tested & checked piece by piece in accordance with the procedures of the Quality System certified according to the UNI EN ISO 9001 standard.

Trust TreeHoppers for a safe, adventurous day of fun!

Our Guides

TreeHoppers Takes Pride in Our Course Monitors & Guides!

To ensure our course monitors and guides are prepared for any situation, each receives a rigorous, ACCT-derived training program.

Upon arrival, our course monitors and guides will personally fit you with a safety harness. You’ll then receive an orientation where you’ll be fully briefed on all of the safety procedures you’ll use throughout your experience.

Then you’ll be taken to the top of our starting platform to begin your adventure.

Throughout your day, our course monitors and guides will be there to guarantee your safety and fun!

All TreeHoppers courses are designed for self-discovery, making “on-the-course” guides unnecessary when compared to many other zip line and adventure parks throughout the world.
