Group Challenges Course

Used during our programming, this hands-on team-building experience strengthens trust, communication, and collaboration.

High Ropes Course & Zip line

Our most popular piece of programming builds confidence, communication, and teamwork as participants navigate elevated ropes/wire elements suspended 30 feet above the ground. The experience ends with a zip line back to the ground.

Indoor Rock Wall

Located in the Discovery Center Building, our 30-foot indoor climbing wall features over 35 routes for all skill levels. Groups can reserve the rock wall for programming or look on our events calendar for public rock climbing experiences.

Settler Cabin

The historic settler cabin is used during scheduled programs for participants to experience history firsthand by practicing fire starting, cross-cut wood sawing, wheat threshing, and cooking over a wood burning fire.

Oneota Dwelling Site

Program participants use the replica Oneota dwelling sites to learn about the Oneota people and their way of life before European settlement.
