Challenge Course at Will Vill
Challenge Course opening for 2024 season!
The outdoor Challenge Course is now open for reservations and will begin its season in May 2024.
The Challenge Course, located at Williams Village, is an outdoor experience that includes games, team activities, low elements and high elements.
Our Low Elements offer group-oriented initiatives that foster leadership, personal awareness, communication, teamwork, creativity and problem solving while staying close to the ground. Your group will focus on building a foundation of trust enabling you to develop stronger teamwork, while exploring techniques for leadership and interpersonal skills.
Our 42 foot tall High Elements Course will challenge both individuals and groups alike! You will have the opportunity to choose your level of challenge to accomplish personal goals, while your group continues to build on the foundations developed during the low elements experience. An adventure on our High Elements is a fun way to complete your day!
