What happens in the case of rain?TreeUmph! Adventure Course is a RAIN or SHINE activity. In the case of severe weather, the park reserves the right to close and/or take precautions for the safety of guests. Should severe weather occur while you are on the course, listen and adhere to the instructions from course instructors.
By purchasing a ticket you agree to our policy that refunds or rain checks are NOT given for wet, hot or cold weather.
It is also possible that we will temporarily close the park due to severe weather conditions such as lightning in close proximity or high winds. If we evacuate guests out of the trees due to dangerous weather, you can expect the following to occur:
- To gather at Base Camp for a general announcement
- Most storms pass quickly in Florida. Our goal is to get you back on the courses as soon as it is safe to do so. We will continue to monitor the storm after all guests are safely down from the trees.
- We ask you to wait for the weather to pass and for Management to decide if guests will be able to return to the courses. Total wait time will not exceed 1.5 hours.
- If after 30 mins, you choose not to wait and have not yet finished the last course of your ticket including the Triumph Zip Line, then you can receive a coupon for a ½ price ticket to return on another day.
- If you choose to wait and Management decides it is safe to return to climbing before the 1.5 hours wait time, then you will be allowed to re-start where you left off on the courses. No rainchecks will be issued if guests are allowed to return to the courses.
- You must wait on premises. If you leave the park for any reason then you lose your claim to a rain check.
- Guests that have not started the courses or are still on the demonstration course are entitled to a rain check without waiting if they prefer.
- All coupons and rain checks are subject to future availability.
After the 1.5 hours wait has expired and Management decides it is still not safe to return to the courses, the following will occur:
- If you have not yet finished the last course of your ticket (not including the Triumph Zip Line) then you will be given a rain check to come back on another day.
- If you have finished the last course of your ticket but have not finished the Triumph Zip Line, then you will be given your choice of either a ½ price coupon to come back or a pass to return to only do the Triumph Zip Line on another day.
What safety measures are in place?Participants begin by watching a safety video where they learn the rules of the park, courses, and how to stay safe. Then guests move on to the Practice Course where they prove to our guides that they are safe and capable of climbing on the courses.
