We strongly suggest you book your session in advance. Take advantage of our discounted pre-booked rates, securing a day and time that works well for you, by clicking here or calling us at (888) 669-6717. Any and all 3 Loco Lines are offered to those arriving by 2pm. Late bookings and walk up reservations can be made, but will depend entirely on our session availability. Our Tower Adventures require no scheduled training and are available on a walk-up basis between 10am - 2pm. Organized Group Events must be pre-booked.
We recommend that all participants dress for the weather. Shorts and tee-shirts provide the most comfort for our visitors in summer. Long pants and long sleeves are standard for our cooler months, however we suggest you bring along a knit hat, gloves, and a fleece if you are prone to the "shivers". Closed toed shoes will be required year round. Flip flops and sandals will not be allowed on the course. All loose jewelry must be removed, with nothing worn around your neck, and long hair tied back. Trust us; you do not want to be distracted by dangly earrings when you’re scaling the Spiderweb. Please remember that Loco Ropes is a high wire adventure in the trees, so don't wear anything you wouldn't want to get a little dirty!
Please arrive at our base camp at least 30 minutes prior to your booked session. You'll need time to check in with our staff and be issued your personal protective gear. Your session will begin with a Training Session to take no longer than 30 minutes. All participants must be present for the Training Session! An effort will be made to reschedule late arrivals, but no guarantees can be made. Additionally refunds will not be issued to bookings or party members not present for the training session, so don’t be late!
The Training Session is a brief pre-course safety meeting scheduled for the beginning of each Booking. Our Base Camp Instructors will teach you how to traverse the Loco Lines safely, and answer any questions you may have. Then we’ll let you loose.
Yes, to ensure people's safety on the Course and on the Tower we have the following restrictions:
| minimum height: | 43" for the Treetop Adventure |
| minimum weight: | 30 lbs for the Tower Adventures |
| maximum weight: | no max for the Treetop Adventure other than being harnessed properly |
| 250 lbs for the Tower Adventures |
We recommend you leave all non essentials locked in your vehicle. Small cameras may be carried but recommend they have the means to be tethered to the harness, or you can bring (or buy from us) an SD card and rent our helmet Go Pros for both hd photos and videos.
A full course booking for all 3 Loco Lines, aka End of the Line, takes approximately 2 - 3 hours to complete. Our shorter excursions, the Short Line on Loco Line 1, our first course segment, and Jump the Line on Loco Line 2 OR Loco Line 3 each take about 30 minutes - one hour to complete.
A time limit on fun?! No way! Feel free to take your time navigating the courses.
No need to fear. Our courses offer varying degrees of challenge. Our friendly and highly trained staff will be present to assist you if you come down with a case of "Elvis knee." Still worried? Come on over and take a trip on the Flying Pig ZipLine. It's great fun and a real confidence builder!
You can be assured that throughout Loco Ropes' exhilarating adventure, safety remains of the utmost importance to us. Our staff are ACCT (Assoc for Challenge Course Technology) Certified high wire facilitators and Red Cross Certified First Responders. Our Treetop Adventure Course was designed and constructed by ACCT Professional Vendor Members, who, along with our Certified Arborist, the DOL, and our staff, perform safety inspections. We utilize a continuous belay system that keeps participants securely connected to the safety cable wire throughout the Treetop Adventure. There are inherent risks associated with all aerial trekking courses. Loco Ropes does utilize the best available technology regarding course components including belay systems. Additionally your active participation during the training session will help us keep you safe.
If you meet the height and weight requirements you will likely be able to complete at least one of our courses. We've designed our course to reward balance and agility over brawn. If you are unsure of your fitness abilities, consult your doctor prior to visiting. Feel free to call us for more information regarding the specific rigors of each course.
Then come on over! If you get in a jam our course staff is equipped to lower you safely to the ground. You can then enjoy again your land legs, refuel your adventurous spirit, and come back a new day and visit us for another go when you’re ready! Sorry, refunds and exchanges will not be given for not beginning or completing the Ground, Treetop, and/or Tower Adventures. We encourage and support all Participants in their completion of the Adventures, as well as respect their decision, at any point, to stop. We're here to help everyone have an awesome Loco Experience!
Your safety harness will catch you! You will then be able to regain your footing and continue on.
We are open Tue - Sat, beginning at 10 am and staying open until those who arrive by 2 pm have completed their adventures.

Yes, Loco Ropes utilizes interchangeable signs at each of its platforms to share information ranging from regional flora and fauna to Arkansas history. Groups who book the first available session of any day may bring 4” x 6” paper signs with information needed to facilitate your specific program. Staff will post your signs during your group’s safety training session; they will be collected and returned as you as your group exits the course(s). We ask $.50 per tree sign you use. Email us at info@locoropes.com for more information.
That's our Water Park feature! Loco Ropes operates Rain or Shine. Refunds will not be given for rain showers, so bring your rain jacket! However, the course will be evacuated with a threat of lightning, giving you the option to wait it out or receive a prorated refund or rain check.
Notice of cancellation given at least 48 hours prior to the start of your scheduled session guarantees a full refund. Should notice of cancellation be given with less than 48 hours prior, there will be no refund.
An honest effort will be made to accommodate rescheduling of a previously booked session. Consideration must be paid to the remaining available sessions on the day you wish to reschedule, and prior notice given.
