Frequently Asked Questions
What is an aerial adventure park?

Why add a ropes course or climbing tower to my property?
A ropes course or outdoor climbing tower is a proven way to increase guest engagement, extend visitor stay time, and boost revenue. Adventure attractions also support wellness, education, and corporate team-building programs, making them versatile amenities for parks, camps, and resorts.
How long does it take to build an aerial adventure park?
Timelines vary based on project size, permitting, and site conditions. On average, a low ropes course can be completed in weeks, while large aerial adventure parks may take several months from design to installation. Apex Aerial Works manages the process from concept through completion.
Do aerial adventure parks require ongoing maintenance?

How much does it cost to build a ropes course or adventure park?
Costs depend on the size, scope, and complexity of your project. A basic low ropes course may start at a lower investment, while customized aerial adventure parks with multiple ziplines and towers represent a larger investment. Apex Aerial Works works with you to design a solution that fits your vision and budget.
