The NLRI Courses

High Course: Traversable by your entire group, the high course includes cargo nets, a Burma bridge, and dual 450-foot zip wires.

Mid Course: Located directly under the high course, the mid course includes an "incomplete bridge", high all-aboard, and diamond walk, allowing 2-4 participants to climb while colleagues on the ground assist.

Low Course: Set in the trees with elements such as a blind maze and Inline Nitro Swing, the Low Course also features a Leap of Faith.

NLRI is a "Challenge By Choice" facility, allowing participants to choose the path that is right for them. The instructors accompany guests at all times, helping them to stay engaged and participate, but if you find that a challenge is not appropriate for you, your instructor will assist you to exit the challenge.
