Trevose, PA: Frequently Asked Questions

TreeTrails Adventures provides climbing and ziplining excitement for fun-seekers ages 4 and up. The park includes three attractions for ages 7 to adult. TreeTrails Adventure Park, ZipTrails, and ZipRacer. Our KidTrails Adventure Park is sized just right for climbers ages 4 – 7.

TreeTrails Adventure Park (our Main Park) suspends over 6 acres located on the wooded property of Phoenix Sport Club. After an equipment briefing, guests ages 7 to adult climb into a main tree platform where they can choose from 6 different trails that are color coded according to the level of challenge they offer for beginners to experts. Our easiest two trails are Yellow, and our two intermediate trails are Green. Our Blue and Black trails are for experienced climbers. These trails consist of 76 challenges made of rope, cable and wood. Challenges include quirky bridges, ladders, rolling events and 8 zip lines. The easiest trails are about 12 feet above the ground and the most challenging trails are up to 55 feet high.

On ZipTrails, fly on a series of 17 zip lines that weave through the forest. The zip lines connect at platforms built in trees. These platforms allow for breaks so you can catch your breath and take in the beauty of nature.

ZipRacer elevates your heartbeat while you whoosh 1,000 feet on dual racing zip lines. Satisfy your need for speed as you race side by side with a buddy. Bet with each other about who will go fastest.  We bet you’ll both have fun.

KidTrails Adventure Park is a climbing area like our signature park but built to scale for climbers ages 4 – 7. It includes two trails with 24 challenges for kids to do again and again. In KidTrails, routes are just a few feet above the ground, allowing pint-sized thrill-seekers a chance to experience the joy of physical accomplishment while a guardian walks beside them.  (Supervision by an adult age 18+ is required, at a ratio of 1 adult for every 2 children.)

We are located at 301 West Bristol Road in Trevose, PA. The park is built on property owned by the Phoenix Sport Club. Turn into the property and follow the road that runs between soccer fields and a picnic grove. Park in the free lot, walk across a bridge and you’ll see our registration building just up the hill to the right. More information can be found on our Your Visit page.

No. Observers can watch and encourage climbers from pathways and viewing areas under the park’s aerial trails at no cost.

Most people who have an active lifestyle and are in good health should not have any difficulty completing many trails in the Main Park. Climbers proceed at their own pace and are welcome to take periodic breaks. Remember, climbers can choose trails within their comfort levels. If you are concerned a medical condition may impact your safety, please ask your doctor for guidance.

TreeTrails Adventures operates in accordance with the standards of the ACCT (Association for Challenge Course Technology). The standards are among the most stringent ropes course safety standards in the world.

All participants receive a course and equipment briefing and time to practice before climbing, so lessons are not required. The Main Park and ZipTrails are intentionally designed for a self-guided adventure. We do, however, have a limited number of guides for guests who may want them for the following reasons:

• Guides are fun companions for children on trails who are being supervised by parents on the ground,
• Guides can accompany children who need an adult climber with them to explore our more challenging trails,
• Guides provide climbers of all ages added peace-of-mind as they stretch their comfort with climbing at height, and
• Guides can provide tips and tricks for taking on challenges throughout the park.

Please contact our team to learn more about hiring a guide for your reserved climb.

Call: (215) 298-0009.  Email: [email protected].

We do not allow guests to bring bags or water bottles on the course while they climb. We encourage you to leave personal belongings at home, and to hydrate between courses or while on the ground.

Snacks and drinks are available for purchase in our store. We also are happy to help you with catering options for birthday parties, family celebrations, group picnics, team adventures and corporate events.

Guests must weigh more than 45 pounds and less than 265 pounds to participate in any attraction for ages 7+, which includes the Main Park, on ZipTrails, and ZipRacer. Additionally, all guests must fit into harnesses provided in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications. Also, all climbers on these attractions must be able to reach 65 inches so they can effectively access safety-related clip-in points and zip line landing ramps throughout the courses.

KidTrails is ideal for ages 4 – 7. Our three other attractions are designed for climbers ages 7 through adult. In the Main Park age restrictions do apply to our more difficult trails that are built for the stride and reach of older and taller climbers. This graph provides information about trail age recommendations in the Main Park.

Supervised: An adult (18+) guiding children (1 – 10 children) from the park ground

After checking in, guests should expect to spend 20 to 40 minutes preparing, depending upon your group size. Every adventure begins with harnessing, an equipment briefing, and time to practice with our state-of-the-art climbing gear. The length of your climb depends upon the attraction you choose.

The Main Park is a 2-hour adventure. Each guest climbs through the trees at his or her pace and each of our 6 trails may require 15-30 minutes to complete. Upon completion of one trail, a climber returns to the main tree platform to repeat the same trail or select another trail, continuing for the duration of their timed ticket. Each guest decides how much of their time they use for climbing. Most want to climb every minute they can!

KidTrails offers 2-hours of exploration on two trails. Many young climbers find a favorite trail section and do it over, and over, and over again.

The ZipTrails adventure is about 1-hour. It takes about this long to zoom through our trail of 17 consecutive zip lines! The longest zip line in the sequence is about 300 feet long!

ZipRacer is a whizzing dual racing ride with the wind whistling through your hair. The adventure is so exhilarating that many guests book two or more rides instead of just one!

We strongly recommend reserving General Admission Tickets online, which can expedite check in when you arrive at the park. When you make an online reservation, you’ll receive a confirmation email and a link on an online waiver that can be completed before you arrive. These waivers link to your account for quick check-in. Guests who walk in will be scheduled for the next available start time. Sometimes there is a wait.

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 in the trees. Climbers receive an equipment briefing and opportunities to practice before climbing into treetops. Course staff members monitor climbers while they are on aerial trails. These monitors are nearby on the ground to offer encouragement, advice, or assistance as needed.

Trails in the Main Park are color-coded to make it easy to choose a climb that provides the level of challenge you seek. Beginners develop their confidence and climbing skills on our 2 Yellow trails. Intermediate climbers enjoy the challenge of our 2 Green trails and 1 Blue trail. Our most athletic climbers enjoy the challenge of our Black Diamond trail. Our easiest trails are about 12 feet above the forest floor and our most difficult trails reach up to 55 feet. When progressing from easier to more difficult trails, climbers discover increasing demands for balance, stamina, strength and problem-solving.

When inclement weather arrives, our team attempts to contact you to explore options. TreeTrails Adventures responds much like a golf course or a swimming pool facility. Sometimes we can avoid storms by changing your start time or by moving your party to a different day. The park typically remains open during spotty or light rain, but climbing is suspended in the event of thunder, lightning, or damaging winds. If you have questions about inclement weather, contact our team.

Wear well-fitting clothing that won’t hang loose or get tangled in cables or ropes. Please tie back long hair and remove all jewelry. Sneakers or hiking shoes are recommended. Footwear must cover your whole foot from toe to heel. We do not allow climbers to wear flip-flops, sandals or Crocs.

We provide a harness and climbing gear with the purchase of your climb. Gloves are recommended but not required. You can bring gloves that are suitable for climbing and completely cover your hands. Don’t worry if you forget your gloves. We sell basic gloves for $6+ tax as well as souvenir gloves that are quite the thing!
