Expectations. Hard Rules.
Handy Hints.
Climbing
Our Expectations:
Don’t leave Kinglake Forest Adventures with regrets of missing out. Stretch your comfort zone (even just a little) with some of our exhilarating climbs and challenges.
Our Hard Rules:
► You must be of a size that fits into our harnesses. Yes we have small ones but generally 8 year old is around the bottom end. We will assess each adventurer on an individual basis.
► You must be under 120kg. It’s a manufacturer restriction of our auto-belay equipment. (No restriction on mountain bikes however).
► You MUST attend the briefing. No ifs or buts accepted.
► Our harnesses and helmets must be worn. No negotiations.
► Be shoe smart. Wear closed toe runners or outdoor shoes.
► Your pockets must be completely empty. (We keep anything that falls out!)
► Understand this: We all know climbing into treetops is risky, that’s partly why we do it. We are the leaders in safety, but Mother Nature and your behaviour are out of our control, so you need to take ownership for your own risk taking. Make sure you complete our online waiver form before you arrive. You’ll find a link at the bottom of your booking confirmation email.
Our Handy Hints:
► Pack your climbing gloves. If you don’t have any, no sweat, you can purchase some entry level ones here.
► Bring your camera so you can capture your daring escapades. (You can secure your camera to our harness for some hands free filming and we have Go Pros for hire too!)
► Oh, and we only close for high winds or lightning – so bring a raincoat if it looks like rain.
►And don’t forget your sense of adventure!
Outdoor Recreational Arena
Expectations:
Our outdoor recreation arena is just that – a special arena for you to try the things that outdoor reccers do when they’re between runs. Have you ever tried slacklining?
Our Hard Rules:
► Helmets must be worn. No negotiations.
► Be shoe smart. Wear closed toe runners or outdoor shoes.
► Understand this: We all know outdoor rec can be risky, that’s partly why we do it. We are the leaders in safety, but Mother Nature and your behaviour are out of our control, so you need to take ownership for your own risk taking. Read and sign our waiver here.
Our Handy Hints:
► Bring your camera to capture the good times and the LOLs
► It’s a great space for a hacky sack or a Frisbee (just be mindful of others!)
► Bring your rug and a bite to eat.
Mountain Bike Riding
Our Expectations:
Just keep it real with the wind in your face and battling the tracks, gravity and whatever nature throws at you. Or, just meander, it’s your ride, take it as you like.
Our Hard Rules:
► No weight or size limits as we have 8 bike sizes
► You must use one of our helmets. No ifs or buts.
► If you bring your own bike it must pass muster. Or no go. Literally.
► You must wear gloves. We have entry level ones available for purchase if need be.
► Be shoe smart. Wear closed toe shoes – runners, bike shoes etc.
► Take out with you, what you take in. More simply take your rubbish with you.
► Adults are NOT to ride on the dedicated children’s track.
► Understand this: We all know riding mountain bikes is risky, that’s partly why we do it. We are
the leaders in safety, but Mother Nature and your behaviour are out of our control, so you need
to take ownership for your own risk taking. Read and sign our waiver here.
Our Handy Hints:
► If you BYO bike make sure it passes our T&C’s of entry. Rejection disappoints.
► Camera or Go Pro – to capture your daring moves. We have camera mounts on our helmets for your GoPro – or you can hire one of ours.
► If you are taking some form of communications, let us know the details when you register.
Interpretive Walking Experiences
Our Expectations:
Chose one our interpretive stories (or all three) and listen and learn as you walk and become at one with the forest and its stories.
Our Hard Rules:
► Take out with you, what you take in. More simply take your rubbish with you.
► Understand this: We all know bushwalking can be risky, that’s partly why we do it. We are the leaders in safety, but Mother Nature and your behaviour are out of our control, so you need to take ownership for your own risk taking. Read and sign our waiver here.
Our Handy Hints:
► Bring your phone or tablet so you can download our interpretive App.
► Flat and comfortable walking shoes –don’t forget you’re in nature so there is plenty of uneven ground.
► Water to drink.
► If you are taking some form of communications, let us know the details when you register.
