The Best in Scout Adventures
The Adventure Center is the best outdoor experiential adventure for activities that cultivate leadership skills, team building, and character development!
We create exciting and competitive experiences designed to instill confidence, cooperation, communication, and connection between group members by offering:
High Adventure Activities
- Asheville Treetops Adventure Park– largest WNC aerial challenge course in the trees with 77 unique climbing, rolling, and swinging elements in a wooded park with smart clips. It is Challenge by Choice! Seven aerial trails range from Beginner to Intermediate. Watch your group step out of their comfort zone to complete a challenge while encouraging each other to create a team bonding atmosphere.
- Kolo Bike Park– Mountain bike sampler-pack designed for all rider levels.
- Asheville Zipline Canopy Adventures– urban canopy tour with two zipline options: The Asheville Zipline or Skyline Zip. A great course for groups with an extensive ground school.
- Tree Quest– Recreational tree climbing on a large oak tree. Guests use specialized gear and techniques to climb on one of our stately oak trees using a rope without negatively affecting the tree. Climbers “inch worm” their way up one of our eight climbs that range in height. TreeQuest allows guests to enjoy an adventure activity in a controlled situation so that they can focus on the thrill of the activity and experience the environment they are in.
Team Bonding Group Cooperative Games
- Group Cooperative Games are custom-created fun and competitive experiences designed to instill confidence, cooperation, communication, and connection between group members. We offer a program full of team challenges that focus on working together. While completing their goal, they are engaged in high-excitement activities that require them to think outside of the box. Packed with fun, your group will be challenged while laughing, joking, and having a ball!
Our activities instill personal development and self-confidence, encourage cooperation with others, enrich problem-solving skills, and offer fun with a challenge. While expanding your comfort zone, each person is supporting and planning with others in the team, developing positive relationships, building trust and inspiring positive changes.

Nowhere in Asheville are there so many different outdoor activities in one place that offer personal growth and discovery. Guests are encouraged to expand their personal comfort zones, increase their self confidence, and support others challenged to do the same. We offer opportunities to move from good to great friends, team members, or leaders as guests literally climb to new heights!
“We took 10 Cub Scouts and their Dads through the Ropes Course. There were courses for all levels of adventure. The staff were friendly and patient with the kids. We definitely recommend the adventure park for kids!”
“We brought our BSA Cub Scout pack from Miami FL. All of the staff was great and patient with kids ranging in maturity and supervisory needs. Caleb at the challenge course was phenomenal with patience, energy, and clarity of the rules. The kids also liked that he shared he is an Eagle Scout. Really the whole challenge course and kid zip team did an amazing job and we appreciated everything.
We had kids pre-K to 6th grade in a group of 8 families.
A few of us did the skyline with Grant and Natalie and though we put them to work and made them run late for the next group (thank you again!) we had a great and safe time. My son especially liked Grants quips like slow motion safety briefing recap, offering the Youth Energy Encouragement Technique (YEET for short), and sloth mode for self assists. Natalie was a champ for having to Ranger rescue the kids who didn’t make it to the platform… several times.
Lastly, I asked for a bag for the ride home (motion sickness and mountain driving – yikes) and the friendly admin team members helped us quickly and without hesitation even giving us a reusable bag with some trash bags just in case.
Kudos to a great operation, super fun experience, and wonderful team. We came to Asheville from our cabin in Gatlinburg just for you guys and were happy with the choice!“
