Adventure Complex Facility


Experience the Ultimate Adventure

Adventure Complex Tower

Just southeast of Columbus, Ohio's premier ropes and challenge course awaits your visit. Built in 1996 by North Carolina-based Alpine Towers Inc., a leader in challenge course design, the Adventure Complex at Akita includes a 50-foot Alpine Tower, Rescue Exercise and Challenge Course (REACH), Climbing Wall and Giant Swing.

Here you and your group can experience team-building, excitement, fun, adventure, problem-solving, communication-building and personal enrichment surrounded by the scenic Hocking Hills.

Reach, Climb, Grow.....

The Adventure Complex consists of three different elements located in the heart of Camp Akita's 1,200 acres.

Alpine Tower

Adventure Complex SwingDesigned by the former director of Outward Bound's National Training Institute, the 50-foot tall tower is an alternative to traditional linear, tree-based high-ropes courses, and features both low and high elements.

Participants, individually or in teams, climb various rope configurations with names such as the Corporate Ladder and Diabolical Seesaw, and swing on the giant swing. During climbing, all individuals are harnessed and secured with safety lines.

Rescue Exercise and Challenge Course
(REACH Course) Group Initiatives


Participants use listening, planning, leadership and communication skills as they pursue the rescue mission challenge, which simulates carrying injured persons over rough terrain, or tackle the Titanic, Perimeter Traverse, Penny in the Haystack, Traffic Jam and Spiders Web exercises.

Opportunities for all ages, groups


Regardless of age or type of group, everyone is welcome at the Adventure Complex. All components are designed for various levels of difficulty, so challenges abound for small children, teens, young and older adults, and people with disabilities. Groups numbering from six to more than 100 can be accommodated at one time.

Participants include groups from hospitals, schools, universities, corporations, treatment centers and retail stores. Individuals and families are welcome, too, for special events. Half-day, full-day, or multi-day program arrangements are available.

Trained instructors can help groups tailor specific programs to meet their particular goals and abilities. The Adventure Complex is operated under the philosophy of challenge by choice. Each participant chooses what he or she wants to accomplish.
