High Ropes - Adventure Course
High ropes has been around for a while, the activity has always proved popular with schools and youth groups. But the activity has evolved and now new centres are being developed with a larger cross appeal to the main stream market.
High Ropes courses are exactly what they say on the tin.
The height of the course varies from site to site, but the layout normally allows people to become confident at low level and gradually progress to more challenging tasks at higher levels. Some centres will start on a small low level course for participants to get the the feel of the activity.
All specialist equipment is included with harnesses, helmets and specialist instruction. After the initial brief and familiarisation, participants move around the course independently watch by instructors positioned at points around the course.
High ropes courses consist of a number of areas (zones) which individuals and groups move to via rope bridges and swings. Each Zone will offer a task or challenge to complete before moving onto the next Zone.
The activity generally lasts between 90-120 minutes depending upon the course and speed you move.
High Ropes is a low impact activity and is more to do with mind over matter, thus the activity makes for an excellent corporate team activity.
The popularity of the activity has grown to to its low cost base, appeal to a broad range of people, it can be enjoyed by individuals and groups, it offers a personal challenge so there is a high sense of achievement when completed and the fact that each centre offers something slightly different.
North Wales now have 4 different High Ropes centres which can be combined with other activities and accommodation for a great short break away.
