We had a Skybridge ticket as part of a Pursuit Adventure Pass; when you arrive you still have to queue up to swap the voucher for a wrist band which took quite a long time. Unfortunately if you want to do anything else the other activities are often very costly and in one case wasn’t available (the coaster), my son queued for 30 mins and then Got told it was down for maintenance. The Axe throwing and climbing cannot be added on unless you upgrade at an incredible cost. Even more disappointing was the fact that the activities to access such as the jumping net and the coaster are across the skybridge and my 2nd son who has special needs was not able to walk across the skybridge due to his fear of falling; he really wanted to and tried and the staff offered to accompany him but there were so many children and adults jumping on it and swinging the bridge that he was too scared. There were limited things for him to do without going across the bridge so this it needs to be thought about if anyone has a fear of heights or access needs.
As a local, I brought my family to the skybridge. I have had good experience s here. However, our visit today was unsatisfactory. My family spent hundreds of dollars. On the website it says you can join a virtual queue for the attractions. This is not true. I was told again that this was possible at the ticket window. Again, this was not available. Also the single lines at the attractions were not open. Next, there was no food. The grill was closed for some reason. There was chips and ice cream and signs saying you could bring in your lunch but only when we got there which is too late. Also, most of the vending machines were out of service and the ones that were in service were out of water. There is one water fill station in the plaza but that’s the only place to fill your water. The staff seemed to have conflicting information and were not informed or prepared to let guests know about the drink and food situation. It was a hot day. However, the staff were nice. I feel like for a company as big as Pursuit you can do better than what my family and I experienced today.
Get there early to avoid the lineups. Bring a water bottle with you. It’s dusty and the terrain has loose gravel so definitely do not recommend strollers. There is a lot to do here! It’s a beautiful place. The weather was absolutely perfect! I would definitely go again and I highly recommend to anyone.
We paid for the Skybridge experience only. Other parts of the park (roller coaster, zip lines etc) would have cost extra. We still were able to spend a good part of our morning exploring. We were satisfied with our experience.
TERRIBLE! DO NOT UNDER ANY CHANCE GO HERE! Our oldest left at the beginning, I wished I would have gone with him, it was expensive and we waited im not kidding 2 hours for ONE 30 second zip line! It was hot and not enough shade for the long wait. SAVE YOURSELF AND NEVER EVER BOOK THIS! IF I COULD GIVE -10000000 STARS I WOULD! SAVE YOURSELVES!!!!
We had a really enjoyable day at the Golden Skybridge and would definitely recommend it, but there are a couple of areas that could be improved. We got the adventure pass which granted us access to the bridges, challenge course, ax throwing, mountain coaster, and zip line. The two suspension bridges were absolutely mesmerizing. The views of the canyon and waterfalls are stunning and worth the visit on their own. We also did the challenge course, which was a lot of fun, and the mountain coaster was an unexpected highlight. It was fast, smooth, and had just the right amount of excitement. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to do the giant zip line because of high winds, which is obviously beyond anyone’s control. Once the weather improved, though, the wait was estimated at about 90 minutes. The line didn’t actually look that long, so it was surprising how slowly it moved. If you’re hoping to do the zip line, I would recommend getting in line early and planning for a significant wait. The biggest disappointment for us was hydration. Once you’re on the far side of the bridge, there didn’t appear to be any bottle filling stations. The only option was vending machines charging $4 for water and $5 for pop. We paid for water, but the machine malfunctioned and we had to track down an employee and wait for assistance. I also found two other vending machines that were out of order. On a hot day with lots of walking, having reliable access to drinking water really should be a priority. Even a few bottle filling stations would make a huge difference to the overall guest experience. Overall, we still had a great time. The scenery is spectacular, the attractions are fun, and it makes for a memorable day out. With a few improvements to guest amenities and wait time management, this could easily be a five star attraction.
Don’t bother buying tickets ahead of time on any third party site. You still have to wait in the long line up to redeem this voucher. It’s not a ticket! The Skybridge ticket is way over priced. After waiting 40 minutes to get in, we were less than an hour walking across 2 Sky bridges. Then I purchased an overpriced bottled drink ($6.00) for an iced tea and the vending machine gave me sprite. Would not recommend
We had looked forward to a really good day with a lot of different experiences but already from when we have to enter the park the bad experiences begin. We had bought tickets in advance from home so we thought that we didn't have to stand in a ticket queue but despite the fact that you bought the ticket in advance, you have to stand in the same queue as all those who don't have the ticket, which means we stood in Kø for 30 minutes to be able to check in and get our bracelet. It seems that it is a poor service that you do not have a queue only for those who have purchased in advance for otherwise it does not give an advantage to do from home. In addition, we enter the park and would like to climb their climbing path but there are so many people that you only have to try 2 tracks and on each track you are in line for at least 30 minutes before you get out and get started on the track properly. It should be said that the ticket controller said you could handle the adventure pass in 2-3 hours but we ended up spending 7 hours in the park due to long waiting times. It seems clear you could optimize the way to stand in line because you spend 90% of your time in the park which is really nice and nice and with some cool activities. The staff was also super nice and friendly but the other here unfortunately overshadows our overall experience of the place.
Went for the 8AM early bird with pre booked admission. All staff we encountered were friendly. Crossing upper bridge we were the only ones on it. It shimmies in the middle which can be disquieting if you’re the nervous sort. Wouldn’t want to be out there with lots of foot traffic. Lower bridge later in early afternoon was busier and felt more movement. Walking trails well groomed. Did the Canyon Edge challenge park (harnessed rope course). Younger kiddo bowed out after the first green course- totally doable for him but personal preference. Self-rescue ropes on ziplines appreciated and keep things moving. We were there by 9 so lines were not an issue. Only husband did the black/hardest course. You need the upper body strength to do a pull-up. Loved it but was completely exhausted by the end. Mountain coaster was pretty long by 11:30 arrival but an absolute hoot. Single cars operated on a deadman brake switch so you control speed- great for nervous folks. Oldest and I did the giant zip line across the canyon. You CAN take your pack with you- they will add carabiners to make sure it stays on. Depending on your weight you can go upwards of 50kph. Do not attempt if you have a history of whiplash or neck issues- the stop at end is sudden. They have a quick system to retrieve you if you roll back from the platform so don’t panic. An amazing zip line experience if you’re brave enough to go. 14 year old is adventurous and loved everything. 11 year old doesn’t like heights very much so had a less enjoyable experience. But he loved the coaster.
This s is a nice park and they are working to make it even better. They have a great kids play area and a fun set of activities available. BUT their current line system is immensely frustrating. If you download their app you can join a virtual queue to save time waiting in line. No one tells you this, however, when you buy your entrance tickets. We had no idea and waited over an hour in the line for the mountain coaster, watching the express line endlessly pass us by, before we finally figured this out. It felt very unfair and took away from our afternoon. If the park is going to use a system like this, everyone should be told about it from the outset. We’re glad we came, but some pieces are still a bit of a work in progress. I recommend coming, but definitely ask about this.
