Lisa loves animals and has dogs, rats, cats, guinea pigs, and snakes. She is passionate about animal rescue and live music - traveling across the country to see a favorite band is a pretty regular occurrence! Being out hiking in the woods enjoying the scenery with her beloved dogs is another favorite hobby, and also checking out the Pokemon Go scene in whatever city she happens to be in at any given time (coffee and dog leash in hand).

“Thank you all for choosing the Empower Adventure Park at Nomads as your adventure destination. The adventure park owners and Empower Adventures have made the difficult decision to permanently close the course at the end of 2022. We want to thank everyone who has visited the park to explore, climb, and Zip On with us, and we hope that you all will continue to seek empowerment through uplifting adventures in 2023 and beyond.”
Feel like you’ve done just about everything there is to do in Connecticut? We’ve got a real adventure for you! Empower Adventure Park in South Windsor has all kinds of fun activities that will let you get a bird’s eye view from up in the trees. The park is spread out over nine acres of forest, and there are six different obstacle courses to check out. This is a unique experience that’s a fantastic team-building exercise for families or groups of friends.
This is a super fun activity for both kids and adults. The trails vary in difficulty, so you don't have to worry about trying something that's beyond your skill level.
Don't feel like you can do the hardest trail, the black one? That's fine, stick with the less challenging ones! The instructors are happy to provide guidance based on your fitness and comfort level.
The guides are great at giving tips and providing encouragement. It's like having a personal squad of cheerleaders.
One of the best parts about completing the courses at Empower Adventure is the views. Seeing everything from such a high vantage point up in the trees is so unique.
