Failure to submit a completed Waiver before participation will result in disqualification from engaging in the Activity.

Next Level Adventure Park reserves the right to refuse participation to any individual who has not completed a Waiver form.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS

Next Level Adventure Park advises individuals with pre-existing injuries or heart conditions to refrain from participating. If Guests have medical concerns, it is strongly advised to seek advice from a healthcare professional before attending. 

If deemed safe to attend, it is mandatory to disclose any medical conditions on the waiver form that may be affected by participation in the Activity. This information assists our team in ensuring your well-being and safety during the activity.

GENERAL PARTICIPATION CONDITIONS:

Check-in is a minimum of 15-minutes prior to the booked session. Please consider early arrival to allow for travel time to the Activity, finding parking, use of lavatories and the walk to the check-in desk.

Next Level Adventure Park maintains strict session schedules. Late arrivals will join the next available session, ending at the originally scheduled session. The manager may, at their discretion, allow a full session for late arrivals. No refunds or credits will be given for late arrivals or no-show Guests. While we will do our best to accommodate late arrivals, there might be limited or no subsequent tours available resulting in the loss of all paid tickets.

Participants must wear and/or use the safety equipment provided by Next Level Adventure Park. No other safety equipment and/or gear will be allowed on the Activity. Participants must solely be fitted and checked by a Next Level Adventure Park instructor before attempting the Activity. Under no circumstances should equipment be left or dragged on the ground to ensure its integrity and functionality for future use.

Prior to attempting the Activity, all Guests must undergo a safety briefing and/or complete the training course to ensure the safety of all Guests and team members. Participants must adhere to the instructions provided at training. Follow our team’s instructions for a safe and enjoyable session – they are here to ensure your safety. Speak to a team member for assistance at any time.

TREE AND HIGH ROPES COURSE RESTRICTIONS

Maximum of 1 person per aerial activity/obstacle/challenge, and a maximum of 6 people per platform. Participants are encouraged to proceed through the Activity at their own pace. Overtaking at platforms is permitted when safe to do so.

Following training, Guests are allotted their remainder of their booking time to complete as many courses as possible during their session. The completion rate may vary due to factors such as individual confidence and abilities, weather conditions, the number and capabilities of other climbers. Generally, Guests booking a 2 hour session, may manage to complete 2-3 courses within this duration.

Participants may select their initial course based on factors like age, ability, weather conditions, and other course restrictions. The decision to begin on a more challenging level is subject to approval by Next Level Adventure Park Team Members only.

SUPERVISION & COURSE ACCESS:

To help keep all our Guests safe, it is important that we have adult supervision for younger climbers. A paid ticket is required for adults who participate together with these younger climbers, according to the requirements detailed below.

Where on-course supervision is required, Next Level Adventure Park recommends adults who maintain a reasonable level of health due to the physical nature of the Activity.

Each activity comes with its own supervision guidelines. When an age group does not require a participating adult, we kindly request for an adult to remain onsite and actively watch from the ground. Spectators and ground supervisors receive free entry.

Junior (6-9 years):

• A participating adult is required as 1 adult per 2 Juniors (6-9 years)
• The Beginner Level is accessible for ages 6-7 years.
• The Beginner and Intermediate Levels are accessible for ages 8-9 years.

Child (10-12 years):

• A participating adult is required as 1 adult per 4 Children (10-12 years).
• The Beginner, Intermediate and Hard Levels are accessible for ages 10-12 years.

Child (13-17 years):

• All levels including Expert are accessible for ages 13-17+
• Children aged 13-17 years require an adult to check them into the park, and remain onsite and actively watch from the ground.

The courses are varied in difficulty and may demand a skill level higher than that of the Guest. Next Level Adventure Park Team Members solely hold the discretion on permitting or prohibiting access to any Guest based on their individual capabilities, regardless of age or height. 

Guests aged 8+ years are unlikely to complete all accessible courses within their session (with exception to the Unlocked Session). Below are examples of average course combinations for that may be completed during a session:

• 2 Beginner Courses
• 1 Beginner and 1 Intermediate Course
• 1 Beginner, 1 Intermediate and 1 Hard Course
• 2 Hard Courses
• 1 Hard Course and Expert

If you have concerns on your personal ability to complete a course, please seek recommendations from a Next Level Adventure Park Team Member. We generally recommend:

• Beginner Levels for Guests 6 – 7 years, or were unable to complete a higher level.
• Beginner Levels Guests ages 8 +, who are not yet confident with heights or who have not previously climbed at Next Level Adventure Park.
• Intermediate Levels for Guests aged 8 +, who have some confidence with heights and a reasonable level of fitness, or were unable to complete a higher level.
• Hard Levels for Guests aged 10 +, who are very confident with heights, maintain a high level of fitness and upper body strength, and a reaching height that is unlikely to impact their ability to complete difficult aerial challenges.
• Expert Level only for Guests aged 13 +, who have completed one Hard Course demonstrating the appropriate strength required for this level, and overall maintain a high level of fitness including upper body strength.
