Take Your School Group To New Heights!
Challenge Course offers your group a unique and interactive way to develop and improve team performance through a series of activities. The course includes a low ropes course with over 24 elements, 9 high ropes elements, bouldering wall and 12 team initiative challenges.

School and youth development programs are based on the premise of experiential education – learning by doing. Our programs help participants to develop a sense of personal validation and assist them in surpassing their self-imposed limits by providing a safe opportunity for learning; physically, emotionally and interpersonally.

Intended for students 8 to 18 years of age (Grades 3 to 12), there are three different programs offered to students, each fostering the development of different skills and promoting distinct outcomes.

Programs are offered year round (weather permitting), Monday thru Friday. Please contact the Outdoor Education Centre for dates and time. Click for booking details

Challenge Course Testimonials

"I was impressed with the staff for my grade 8 students' experience on the ropes challenge course. They were well organized, laid back yet assertive. The program for teamwork was fantastic, exactly what I wanted my students to experience. I will definitely check out other options that you have for the students in the spring."
