The largest aerial adventure course in North America is set to open in a Chicago suburb this summer.
The Forge: Lemont Quarries, described as a “one-of-a-kind adventure park built on 300 acres of historic land,” will feature ropes courses, ziplines, climbing walls, mountain biking, hiking trails, fishing and more.
According to the park, its aerial course will contain more than 260 features with hundreds of possible routes. The park will also have the tallest ropes course in North America - standing at 120 feet with two 90-foot towers – as well as the longest zipline in the tri-state area, organizers said.
