Team & Community Building

High Ropes Challenge Course

Low Challenge Course
The Mountain features both high and low challenge courses. Designed to enhance team building, and communication skills, the low challenge course is accessible to a wide range of skill and ability levels. The high ropes course challenges individuals to conquer their fears. Indoor and outdoor initiatives and group games make the serious work of improving group dynamics fun! Advance arrangements for these activities must be made, as fully trained and certified Mountain staff are required for the challenge courses, and due to programming commitments, may not always be available.

Outdoor Adventure
The Mountain is located in the midst of the Nantahala National Forest, and hiking opportunities abound in our local area. There are many trails on the Mountain property and the Mountain staff is happy to offer suggestions and provide trail maps. Additional information can be found at the Highlands Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center website.
