Ready for a day of zip lining, rockwall climbing, and high-flying
fun? Join us for an epic adventure at Charleston Adventure
Forest!
We will soar through the trees on a high-flying
zipline canopy course, offering breathtaking views of the forest as
you zip from platform to platform.
Test your strength and
courage at the rock climbing wall. Whether you're a seasoned climber
or a first-timer, you'll find a challenge that's perfect for you.
Conquer the heights, push your limits, and celebrate your success with
your fellow Girl Scouts!
Throughout the day, you'll also get to
interact with a variety of animals in a unique Animal Encounter. Learn
about local wildlife, their habitats, and the importance of
conservation while getting up close and personal with some amazing
creatures.
This is an outdoor adventure in a stunning natural
setting perfect for Girl Scouts who love outdoor exploration,
team-building, and seeking new challenges. It's the perfect mix of
outdoor fun, adventure, and personal growth, all while making lasting
memories with your Girl Scout friends.
