Campers ages 10 to 12 take part in structured climbing and ropes activities that focus on physical challenge, problem-solving, and steady skill development. These activities are designed for older campers who are ready to try higher-level elements while working within clear safety procedures and close staff supervision.
The Climbing Tower includes multiple challenge options such as two rock walls with varying difficulty levels, a Giant Swing, a 200-yard Zipline, a Giant Cargo Net, and Jacob’s Ladder. Campers progress through each element at their own pace, selecting challenges based on comfort and readiness while working toward personal goals.
The High Ropes course adds elevated obstacles that test balance, coordination, and focus. Campers also have access to the High Ropes Confidence Course, which introduces additional mid-air elements that encourage trust, controlled movement, and thoughtful decision-making while remaining secured in harnesses at all times.
All climbing and ropes activities are led by trained, certified staff members. Safety equipment is inspected daily, and both the Climbing Tower and High Ropes courses are professionally inspected and certified each year to meet current safety standards.
For families living near Flemington, NJ, Oak Crest Day Camp provides a structured and well-supervised option where older campers can challenge themselves physically while learning how to navigate obstacles safely and responsibly.
