ADK Extreme Gets National Pop

If you’re looking for a little adventure high above the ground, one Capital Region favorite is getting national recognition.

Fly High or Hang Low

I've been to this place a few times, and it never disappoints.  You can make it as “extreme” as you want, flying high through the sky like Tarzan, or take it down a notch and enjoy a more beginner-friendly adventure through the treetops at your own pace.

Zip-lining and treetop adventure parks have exploded in popularity across the country, offering a safe yet thrilling way to explore the forest canopy. Adirondack Extreme helped lead the way, opening back in 2007 as the first aerial adventure course in the U.S.

10 Courses For Every Skill Level

Today, it features six adult courses and four kids’ courses, with something for every skill level. Courses 1 through 4 include 75 treetop obstacles and 20 zip lines, while the more advanced courses add even more challenges. There’s also a low-rider, zip-line-only option for beginners, plus a dedicated kids’ course with dozens of games and obstacles.

The best part? You can help put this Upstate New York gem on top.

Voting is open now, and you can cast your vote once per day through June 1 at noon. The winners will be announced on June 10th, and it would be pretty cool to see a Capital Region favorite take the crown.
