(This activity can only be run by qualified instructors) Our climb tower was completed in Feb of 2017 and is one of the most amazing climbing towers out there! With four sides and 5 different climbs, incorporating overhangs, slopes, outcroppings and even a chimney, this tower has something for all climbing abilities. The tower alone is enough to justify a trip to Licola.
INITIATIVES

GIANT SWING
(This activity can only be run by qualified instructors) Voted the most exhilarating, adrenaline rush, of our activities! The thrill of achievement is powerful, increasing confidence and personal achievement through conquering fears of heights or speed. Participants conquer their fears of height or speed as they are harnessed in and hoisted into the air. Overcoming nerves, they must release the rip cord and shoot through the air. An exhilarating ride in complete safety.

Elements include the Burma Bridge, the Criss Cross, Swinging Vines, Train Tracks and the Dangle Duo.

QUICK JUMP
(This activity can only be run by qualified instructors) The brand new climbing tower has an incredible element to it, the Quick Jump.
