Q: Is Cypress Peak safe?

A: All climbers wear state-of-the-art harnesses and climbing equipment that meets the highest industry standards. Climbing equipment employs “double-clipped-on” technology designed to keep the climber continuously connected to a secure cable throughout their time on Cypress Peak. Climbers receive an equipment briefing and opportunities to practice before climbing. Course staff members monitor climbers while they are on the course. These monitors are nearby to offer encouragement, advice, or assistance as needed. Adventure Park meets all standards of the Association for Challenge Course Technology (ACCT).

Q: Is Cypress Peak Difficult?
A: Cypress Peak provides multiple levels to make it easy to choose a climb that provides the level of challenge you seek. Beginners develop their confidence and climbing skills on level 1. Intermediate climbers enjoy the challenge of level 2. Our most athletic climbers enjoy the challenge of level 3 that allows you to reach heights 48 feet above the ground.

Q: Do I have to be physically fit to complete the course?
A: Most people who have an active lifestyle and are in good health should not have any difficulty completing many of the levels. Climbers proceed at their own pace and are welcome to take periodic breaks. Remember, climbers can choose within their comfort levels.

Q: What clothing should I wear?
A: Wear well-fitting clothing that won’t hang loose or get tangled in cables or ropes. We advise tying back long hair and removing all jewelry. Sneakers or hiking shoes are recommended. Flip-flops, sandals and open-toed/heeled shoes are not acceptable.
Imagine the harness. The full-body harness hits at your thighs, groin, waist, stomach, back, and shoulders. Now, double check that your clothing covers all of these points, especially your thighs and shoulders.Shorts that are to short can become uncomfortable if harness rubs.

Q: How long does it take to experience Cypress Peak?
A: Guests select either 1 hour climbing or unlimited. Each guest has the ability to choose their pace. Each level can take 15-20 minutes to complete, upon completion guests can choose the next level or choose to stay on the same level.
