Enjoy an unforgettable escapade with a treetop adventure at Go Ape, where they offer a 28-foot-high tree-to-tree crossing, super-long zip lines, and heart-stopping Tarzan swings. This 2-3 hour experience is like no other. The course at Go Ape in Oak Point Park takes you over 27 feet up in the woodland canopy, providing breathtaking views of the lush landscape below. Plus, the zipline even crosses over Rowlett Creek. With 40 crossings featuring varying suspended obstacles and four zip lines, this is not your typical aerial ropes or canopy tour.
