At Common Ground Adventures, our Ropes Course Services and Construction team consists of experienced, trained, and active facilitators who view a Challenge Course in many different lights.
When we design, build, inspect or maintain a course our primary focus is the safety of the course. However, our team’s years of experience from different corners of the industry also enables us to view a course from many other viewpoints. We see the course in terms of its value to participants, its ease-of-operation for facilitators, its maintenance and operation costs for the owner. In addition to providing insight into physical Ropes Course Services, our team’s experience allows them to conduct deep and thoughtful training sessions for other facilitators.
We take pride in our long-lasting relationships with our clients. These relationships are no accident, they are built on our excellent customer service, flexibility to our clients’ needs, and understanding of the role their Challenge Courses play among the many other aspects of their operations.
High Ropes Construction

Low Ropes Construction
Low Ropes Courses are a low-cost way to add high-value Team Building options to your organization’s program. After considering your organization’s location, target market, budget, and other factors, we will recommend, design, build, and provide training for a brand new Low Ropes Course at the lowest possible price.

Training
Regardless of your organization’s unique training needs, we offer a course for you. Our simplest training courses are brief refreshers for seasonal staff. At the other end of the spectrum, we offer week-long intensive training sessions. Our training sessions can cover anything from the soft skills of facilitation to each technical detail of operating a High Ropes Course. Our Ropes Course Training page contains more information about our programs. We also offer Recreational Tree Climbing Training.
