The adventure day camps are great if you have kids that need lots of activity. Each day they mix it up with different places for hiking, caving or climbing. Then they end the day at a different swimming hole or lake for some water fun. Pack tons of water, food and sunscreen and be ready for tired campers at pick up!

I took my daughter, who is nine years old, to Petra Cliffs on a whim one Friday night. We got there and the woman at the front desk was great, making my daughter feel welcome and excited. I think it cost around $10 just for my daughter to climb for the evening (I was the guy who stayed at the bottom with the rope and made sure she didn't fall!). We got a quick (5 minute) lesson from one of the staff, who was friendly and professional, then off we went.

My daughter was nervous at first, but by the end of the night (two plus hours later) she was exhausted and an amazing climber! She had climbed to the top in countless areas and had rung the bell several times on one climb (which was her personal highlight). To watch my daughter use her body the way she did, and grow in confidence right before my eyes was incredible. I was also pleasantly surprised by how uncrowded it was! We never had to wait to climb anywhere and the crowd that was there was healthy and positive. This is a great thing to do with kids! We arrived around 7pm and left just after 9pm....more
