Covering more than 2,150-acres here in New York State, Thacher State Park is one of the best places to visit in the Capital Region when you’re ready to bring out the adventurer in you. In the past, we’ve highlighted how you can literally walk behind a waterfall at this incredible state park, amongst other things like enjoying the panoramic scenic overlooks and hiking trails. What some people may have failed to notice though is that last year, the park actually opened up its very own aerial adventure course! Take a look.
As if this place wasn't already adventurous enough, feast your eyes on WildPlay Thacher here in Voorheesville, New York.
Made up of various activities that all range in intensity, WildPlay Thacher offers the newest and most exciting way for you to experience this underrated park.
Out of all the activities offered inside WildPlay Thacher, the What's The Fear Jump (WTF JUMP, for short) is the most popular - sending you jumping off of a platform and 40-feet from the treetops. Woah!
Giving you the chance to put all your strengths to the test, you and your friends and family will have an absolute blast trying to conquer all the different above-ground obstacles.
From leaping off platforms high above the ground and climbing across cargo nets to maneuvering your way across swinging bridges and logs - this adventure course has it all.
