Adventure Park at Long Island opens next month

The Adventure Park at Long Island, the area’s largest zipline and climbing adventure experience, announced its season opening day on Friday, April 1.

The park, located in the Henry Kaufmann Campground at 75 Colonial Springs Road in Wheatley Heights, will celebrate opening day with its signature “Glow in the Park” event on Saturday, April 2. The event features music and glowing lights, creating a magical zipline and climbing experience. 

“We are counting down the days until we open again for the season,” Candie Fisher, president of The Adventure Park, said in a written statement. “We’ve missed our adventure community and are excited to unveil our 2022 upgrades.”

The 14 trails at The Adventure Park consist of various challenges in the trees, including bridges, tightropes, ladders and 34 ziplines. Participants wear harnesses with clips that connect to the trail’s safety system, ensuring that they are always locked on to the course until they reach the end. The main trails are designed for ages 7 to adult, and an Adventure Playground provides a low-to-the-ground adventure experience for little climbers ages 3 to 6.

Non-climbing participants are admitted free to share the experience on the ground and enjoy the property’s nature trails, picnic tables and community fire pit.
