Harpers Ferry Adventure Center 

7/6/2014

 
Picture
On the northern tip of Loudoun County, VA, near Harpers Ferry, WV sits a breathtaking place for families to engage in exciting adventures.  Whether you are looking for a day trip or a mini-vacation, Harpers Ferry Adventure Center offers tons of family-fun for a variety of levels and ages such as:

Adventure Park: a three-level high challenge course with over 50 cable and rope bridges and ziplines, a low level for kids 5-12 who are at least 36" tall, and middle and upper levels for  those 10 and older who are at least 48” tall.

White Water Rafting: (must be at least 5 yrs old & 50 lbs.) An awesome half day trip offered for beginners on a beautiful 7 mile stretch of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers. Enjoy Class I-III rapids, get active, and view some wildlife.  All trips include: the raft, a guide, PFD (Personal Flotation Device), helmet, paddle, beverage during the trip, and shuttle to and from the river.

Water Tubing: Choose from Flat Water Tubing (must be at least 5 years old & 50 lbs,) White Water Tubing (ages 12 plus) or do a combo of both.  Water tubing is one of Harpers Ferry Adventure Center's signature activities and the perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day!

Kayaking: Kayak on the white water on an inflatable kayak dubbed a "Duckie" (must be 10 years and older) or paddle at your own pace on the flat water (ages 12 and up.) 

Canoeing: Paddle on the Potomac River alongside the historic C&O Canal towpath, Half and full day trips are offered, participants must be at least 5 yrs old and 50 lbs. 

Zip Line Tours: Play in the treetops and experience the best zip lining in WV! Tours include 7 ziplines and a skybridge. Must be 6 years old and 60 lbs to participate. Special rates offered for kids. 

Off Road Segway Tours: Teens and adults will love testing their balance and coordination in this fun tour complete with an obstacle course and mountain trip. Plus, Segways are less damaging to natural terrain than hiking boats, so the beautiful ride is also eco friendly! 

Camping: Extend your adventure by staying at one of the premium riverside camp sites

Cabin Rentals:  Prefer not to stay in a tent, try staying in a scenic mountainside cabin. 
 

Other family friendly activities offered include horseback riding, the giant jumping pillow, hiking, rock-climbing and fishing.

We love that Harpers Ferry Adventure Center is just an hour from DC, rates are affordable, and the facilities are award-winning and top-notch.  Plus, they are located just 1/4 mile from the river which cuts transportation time down to a minimum.

Unfortunately we are behind for the completion of our Aerial Park's lowest level due to our long winter and at the mercy of our contractor. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused families with smaller children. Please call our office if the age and size limitation has effected your entering the park and we will be happy to work something out. We are a family business who highly values our center being a great family experience!
