TreeHoppers Aerial Adventure Park - Dade City, Florida

Scorn

We had the best time! We went as a team outting. I would say definitely bring water with you. Gear was good, staff were funny, smart and would help if you needed it. We got some amazing pictures. Loved the thick trees and surroundings.

My child's 14th birthday party at Treehoppers was by far the best birthday party he has ever had in Tampa Bay. Three solid hours of thrilling physical and cognitive challenges. The staff was AMAZING. There are multiple staff members on course to help climbers troubleshoot or if they get stuck. The staff truly cares, and they are so talented and knowledgeable. Plus this was the cheapest option of all of the locations we were considering, which is shocking because the value of the experience is like 100 times better than the other places. The location is absolutely gorgeous. If you're adventurous, I would even consider having a wedding here. No plastic touristy junk, just trees and climbing equipment and beautiful lighting. We had an adorable pavilion where we had pizza and cake. I am stunned by how wonderful this experience was for all the kids. Best for ages 10 and up, although there are a couple of courses for younger kids. We will definitely be back as many times as we possibly can. THANK YOU Treehoppers staff!

We were absolute beginners, but had so much fun! Managed all 3 yellow courses and 1 green, and had a complete blast doing them. Super helpful staff, fun courses with an array of elements, and a great environment made for a wonderful day. (Make sure you understand how to steer/slow your zip line though - slamming into the tree at the landing platform is not the best way to stop, ha!) 5/5 stars, definitely recommend and would do again, no question.

This place is out in the middle of nowhere. You park in a grass field. They have a booth that says you have to pay for parking (around $20) but it was closed so I'm not sure when you would pay or not.
They don't do ticket cost refunds for anyone missing in your group but they do give you a voucher for that person to come another time. I suggest you buy your tickets and reserve a time slot online and do the waiver on line to save time. Even if you are not participating you need to fill out the waiver.
They fit you with the harness. There gloves are a MUST, I believe some cost have that included and another doesn't . You have a safety lesson and practice course to start. They have about 8 level courses. You have to go in order from easy to hard. And it gets very hard as you level up!
Wear closed tennis shoes, tighter clothes as if you are exercising, nothing in pockets, long hair pulled back or hanging. You don't want to get anything stuck.
It's very rustic and in the woods. Lots of picnic tables. Lots of shade which is great. Twinkle lights at night for climbing. I suggest bringing bug spray. If you are allergic to any kind of bee or wasp sting bring medicine or use extra caution. I did see a few but it's expected outdoors in the woods.
They have a main building that has drinks, ice cream, chips, soft pretzels and pizza slices. Other small items but I don't recall them all. It's a little expensive. 5 sport drinks cost about $26. They do not have a water fill station but you can buy a blue wrist band and they give you water. Restrooms are also at the main building.
In the fort area there is a giant platform that splits into all the courses. This is where parents can sit and watch.
My group of teenagers had a blast. At the end these were dirty, hot and exhausted. But they wanted to keep going. But the place closed at 6pm.
The staff was very nice and helpful and worked their butt off BUT I felt they might have been a little short staffed.
My two negatives opinions are. 1. Ticket price is a little high for 3 hours. If it was all day that would have been better so the kids had time to get through all the courses. 2. I felt they did not have nearly enough staff around all the courses to help, watch and monitor the kids on the courses. Especially when a child was struggling .
We would love to come back but not sure we would do to cost and being far away.

Awesome spot came here with friends to celebrate a birthday would definitely recommend this to anyone that is looking for something different and to have a great time. Although I would recommend coming at a time where you don’t expect many kids to be on courses as you can’t skip and could be waiting on a course for an hour. Another plus is that the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful with any situation I had at my visit. Would come here again though!

Staff very helpful and friendly. Great place to get outside and do a fun activity that keeps you moving. Concession and bathroom area are well maintained and the class instructors a wonderful as well. Our family has a blast.

Lots of fun and a great workout.

The courses are very challenging and appropriately labeled for each age group.

Brought my kids 5 and 7 who very much enjoyed and felt challenged by the beginner courses. And the higher level courses are a challenge for anyone even in peak physical shape.

Great outside fun!

Tree hoppers is more than worth every penny. The courses are challenging and safety is paramount. They had staff all over to assist so you never felt stuck. This place is a confidence builder. Great for a day out with your family, team building, confidence booster for kids or birthday parties or date.
