UCSB Adventure Programs proudly invites you to traverse our indoor Ropes Course! Each course is hand-tailored to fit the needs of your group. This jungle gym experience challenges both the mind and the body through a series of “low course” and “high course” activities. Low course games are great for team-building while emphasizing problem solving, goal-setting, communication, trust, and of course fun! The high course introduces our high-flying, rope-swinging adventures as participants suit up in harnesses and take on elements such as our climbing walls, tarzan swing, wobbly rope bridge, giant's ladder, and zip line! Our course includes features for adventurers of all ages and skill levels.
We offer courses for all types of events including birthday parties, corporate retreats, camps, school field trips, employee bonding, family reunions, and pretty much anything you can think up. Conquer your fear of heights or simply embrace your love of them, all while having a blast and building a sense of team belonging and community.

Standard 3 Hour Ropes Course Adventure
Each course is hand-tailored to your group! The typical Ropes Course adventure is 3 hours.
First Half: Low Course
- Games on the ground that can focus on whatever your group wants to get out of the course
- Examples: Team-building, goal-setting, trust, or just plain old fun!
- Typically this section is about an hour.
Second Half: High Course
- Our team will suit everyone up in harnesses and helmets and put them up on our elements!

We typically book courses during the following time slots:
- Thursdays from 7-10pm
- Fridays & Saturdays from 9am-12pm
- Sundays from 2:30-5:30pm
We can sometimes accommodate alternate requests if none of those time slots work for you. However, we do share the indoor gym with other UCSB programs, clubs, and teams and do not always have access to the course. You can request days and times outside the above mentioned range, but it is not guaranteed.
