Why We Recommend It

The course offers a fun challenge for every skill level, and you really get to cheer each other on (and maybe laugh when someone gets stuck on an obstacle, just saying!). If you’re bored of the usual dinner and a movie, this is a great way to mix things up, build memories, and maybe even discover some hidden ninja skills.

  • Active & Engaging: Perfect if you love dates that get you moving and working together.

  • All Skill Levels Welcome: With multiple difficulty levels, both beginners and adventure-seekers will have fun.

  • Teamwork & Bonding: Cheer each other on, conquer challenges together, and share some laughs.

Our Experience

We booked the Sky Gym experience and absolutely loved it! After a quick safety briefing, we geared up and hit the course. There are three levels, each with its own set of wobbly bridges, swinging ropes, and balance challenges. We definitely cheered each other on, and there were a few moments where we had to conquer our fears (those high-up obstacles are no joke!).

It was so much fun to try something out of our comfort zone together. The course is designed really well, with staff nearby to offer tips or encouragement if you need it. We left feeling accomplished, energized, and already talking about coming back to try the ziplines next time.
