Get off the ground to have a whale of a time. This is what Tree Adventures New Zealand promises. Everything happens 3 to 14 meters off the ground in the Wood Hill Forest close to Auckland. Five adventure options among the tree tops guarantee fun for everyone.
Monkey’n Around is for beginners. This is an introductory course happening three to seven meters off the ground that is suitable for anyone from 7 years onwards. Tree Huggin’ also targets the young and the inexperienced with eleven high wire activities including swinging logs, suspended tunnels, Japanese steps and giant’s net strung up 3 meters off the ground. Branching Out amps up the excitement a bit and adventure seekers get to go through several obstacles such as hanging logs, a climbing wall ladder and platform leaps. The obstacles in the High Flyer are for the more confident climbers. Happening 14 meters from the ground, participants can cautiously attempt the balancing beams and daringly launching themselves into the flying fox routine which has them zipping through the tree tops as part of the action. Tarzan’s Test is obviously the ultimate course. It offers the Tarzan swing, the ape hanger, cannon ball run and a flying fox 150 meters long that is guaranteed to give the biggest thrill of all. All the activities in this program happen 14 meters above ground.
This unusual way of having fun and enjoying the natural environment using just ropes and pulleys and muscle power originated in France and is now a great favourite in New Zealand where adventure sports are a way of life. The park is used by many institutions for team and confidence building purposes. Anyone who completes the challenging courses is rewarded with an inner glow, the outcome of a sense of accomplishment. Whether you have a head for heights or not, one of the best ways to enjoy the green surroundings of the park is to take a picnic and chill.
