Bouncing Nets Adventure
After coming down from the Tree Top Trek, next up was our two-hour session on the Bouncing Nets! We made sure to have our picnic first and took a quick bathroom break—though it’s worth noting that you can come off the nets at any time, and your two hours will pause, which is really handy.
As soon as we were ready, we ran up onto the nets. There’s a huge netted walkway with multiple "rooms" branching off in different directions. Some rooms have slides to whizz down, others are filled with balls. The girls and I spent most of our time in the section with the giant inflatable balls—so much fun! We played pass, piggy in the middle, and had a blast just launching them at each other and goofing around.
At first, I wasn’t sure we’d stay up there for the full two hours, but the time flew by. Between bouncing, laughing, and exploring, there was never a dull moment. It was also lovely to take breaks in the wooden treehouse area—perfect for catching your breath and relaxing. The sun was shining, and we got pretty warm, so I’d definitely recommend wearing light, comfortable clothing.
If someone in your group isn’t up for bouncing, no problem—there are picnic tables below where they can chill and still keep an eye on the action (especially helpful for parents of older kids).
It’s a fantastic way to enjoy the fresh air and do something a little different. I especially love that it’s suitable for kids aged 3 and up, making it a brilliant family activity!
