After 4 months of Shelter in Place, the Sequoia Adventures course was a nice breathe of fresh air!! Every precaution was done to perfection: social distancing, new cool mask and grip gloves (compliments of Mt Hermon). Helmets were clean, but we brought a halo cap for extra protection. There were 10 people in our group. Weekdays probably have less people per group. The guides were patient and attentive, ensuring a safe and fun time. The course is simply great! Something for every level. As a 45yr old mom trying to keep up with my 15yr old teen, I was surprised how comfortable I felt traversing across 80ft high bridges and logs. I'm fairly out of shape, but managed the course fine. Some great family bonding in the safe outdoors during the craziest of times. Highly recommend for a half day adventure in the redwoods. The guides recommended some great restaurants nearby, they know their stuff- so do ask- casa nostra was delicious. And we did tip out guides, they deserved it!! Doesn't get any better, local adventures are the best! read more

My family and I have been here twice, we have done both tours . . . money well spent each time! 2 years ago we did the ziplining adventure and we were sure that it had to be the best tour, given how exhilarating it was. We were wrong: 5 days ago we did the 'Sequoia Aerial Adventure' and now this option is our favorite tour. This aerial adventure is a very intricate obstacle course surrounded by nature. No crawling . . . all standing and balancing. When you see it you will be astonished at how anyone could have built such a well-crafted physical challenge so high off the ground. It has all levels of difficulty, so you are not 'pigeon-holed' into having to go in one direction (there are always at least 2 options to choose from). Additionally, with the 'Sequoia Aerial Adventure' you still get to enjoy 2 ziplines. However, these 2 ziplines are shorter than the 6 ziplines in the 'Redwood Canopy Tour'. The one drawback with either tour is that you will be aching to take photos on your phone (which is allowed). However, who wants to risk dropping one's phone from that height; I don't. If I could give Mount Hermon Adventures 6 stars I would. They never disappoint. read more

Mount Hermon Adventures - Trying to strike a pose for the camera while ziplining is fun but a bit challenging. - Challenge Courses Near Me - Mount Hermon, California

Wanted to spend my birthday here, and they had a special Sequoia Starlight Adventures. After dark ropes course with lights...YES. It was such an awesome experience. They keep the groups pretty intimate which i liked. There were 8 of us in a group. The instructors are very nice and friendly. Prior to going up in the course they give you a 101 class on how to clip, zip, and properly pull yourself up if you fall. You feel very safe and excited before getting on the course. I think the fact it was at night would help anyone who's afraid of heights. Mount Hermon is absolutely beautiful, again hard to see at night so show up a bit early if you want to check the place out first. They do have the lights and give you a head lamp, so it's not complete darkness. I would love to try the course during the day. The entire experience is about 2 hours. There are easy paths you can take on the course or more challenging routes. There are 3 aerial trails that have ropes, logs, nets, and cables. Be sure to bring your gopro and wear pants. Great to go in groups, with family, solo, or date night. gave us hot cocoa and cookies afterwards. read more

Amazing team bonding event. Our group of 13 decided to go on an Aerial Adventure and everyone had a blast. For someone that is deathly afraid of heights, I was so proud of myself for being able to complete all the obstacles I attempted, even though some of them had me almost peeing my pants. They have 40 different obstacles, or "elements", as they call it here for you to attempt. You start off at a lower height but then increasingly make your way to higher and higher obstacles until the finale, where you bunjee jump off a platform. Even though your mind knows that you're safe and hooked up to the wire for each obstacle, there were some where you basically felt like you were about to free fall off. I was holding on so tight to my cable that my hands had a bunch of blisters after. Our tour guides Caleb and Jordan were great. Even though they were much younger than anyone in our group, they did a great job conveying authority and helping to calm us all down when we were freaking out. The entire staff at Mt Hermon was great to work with from start to finish, including Helen who went out of her way to set up some private space to act as a Mother's Room for a new mom in our group. Two thumbs up to Mt Hermon's! read more

First time ziplining. I had an awesome time although I started off super anxious but by the end I felt more comfortable. I went with a group of my coworkers as a team building event. In my group, our guides were Tera and Janis/Yanis (sorry I'm not sure how to spell his name) they were both amazing. I hear our other groups of coworkers had great guides as well. I can only speak to the two we had and I can't imagine a good a time as I would of had without these two. They definitely got me to overcome some of my fears. Tera had her "fun facts" about the redwoods and Janis was super sociable and entertaining. At times he was just flat out evil - it was brilliant! But safety was first and foremost and our guides made it the least of our concern. I don't know how to explain it, they made it seem fluid and natural and more about having a good time. The views were stunning and made me wish the ziplines were longer or there were more ziplines to ride. The two hours flew by. For me intimidating as it was, it was well worth going out of my comfort zone. Being up in those impressive redwoods was a uniquely satisfying experience. BTW, did I mention our guides were awesome! I hope to go again.. read more

Mount Hermon Adventures - Our awesome guides Tera and Janis/Yanis (sorry I don't know how to spell your name). - Challenge Courses Near Me - Mount Hermon, California

WHY WE WENT HERE: - sibling + significant other August birthday celebration THE EXPERIENCE: - Redwood Canopy Tour for 7 - after it was booked, we had plenty of time via email to sign the waiver - once there, we found easy parking in the parking lot - we entered the cabin-looking check-in/gift store and played games and had snacks/water and partook in a pre zip-lining bathroom break (since you're in the trees for 2 hours until you're able to access the bathrooms again) - I like how organized the personal protective equipment was laid out for each group that zip-lines - the video orientation was about 5 minutes - after that, our two guides (one to lead the group, the second to bracket the group) lead us to do a hands-on demo, the "bunny slope" of the zip-lining before we hit the actual zip-lines; I like how they had every single one of us do the hands-on demo before proceeding - the day we went it was perfect weather (slightly overcast summer day in the low 70s) to be outside for several hours - we all had SO much fun - highly recommend read more

Went here for my birthday as I have always wanted to try zip lining. It was wonderful. So fun! The helpful, attentive and friendly staff made the experience as great as it was. Will return for sure. read more

We stumbled along this gem while visiting Santa Cruz. I'm traveling with my parents and my three kids ages 17, 14, and 3. I wanted to find something fun and adventurous for my big kids, so this seemed perfect. I asked my parents to watch my 3 yo, and my mom said she was interested in going too. I was a bit apprehensive about it, but my mother is in great shape for being on her mid-70s (she will deny her age if you ask...ha!) so I went ahead and booked a spot for her as well. Check in was easy. The guides were very thorough. They explained everything very well and were super encouraging. They learned our names right away and were very attentive. The whole company was extremely covid cautious. I felt in good hands. The course was so much fun. My teens and I took off and did not look back. Now to my mother- she rocked it! To say I was proud is an understatement. She only faltered on one challenge. Our encouraging guide stayed by her side and helped her get through it. She completed the first two levels of the course and opted out of the third level, which was perfect since there were several (much younger) group members who struggled to get through. read more

Wow, what an experience. One word, amazing. Our kids are 12 and 13 and they did great. Scary at first but really enjoyed it after 15 mins. Staff are super nice and attentive. If you like nature and not too scare of height, this is a must try. They use the cable with two hook mechanism system to ensure that you are 100% safe at all time. We'll definitely come back for more in the future. read more

Aerial adventure was a disappointing experience. Each customer should be given enough time to enjoy the experience. Just because we didn't fight to go first and happened to be the last group of the tour, the guide was impatient and rushing us at the end. The two guides could have controlled the flow better, allowing those who need less time to go first or moving some to a different course. Or manage each tour with fewer people instead of 10. read more

Late review, but my boyfriend and I decided to visit here after being stuck at home for a while. We were the only two in our group so it was amazing. The weather was so hot and we were sweating like crazy, but the trees, the shade, and the fun made us forget that :) Jonathan, our guide? If that's what you would call him? He was so cool and fun to hang with. He was very patient with my fear of heights and let us do everything at our own pace and even helped me get through some courses I ended up panicking on. 10/10 would go again. You won't regret this spot. read more

Great experience!!! Guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and very funny. I would highly recommend the canopy tour to anyone looking for something to do in the Santa Cruz area. I drove from San Jose and it only took 45 min. From start to finish everything takes 2 hours as advertised. read more

I came here with my team on Friday Place : It's tucked into redwood forest. Parking was very hard to find as there were summer camps going on. Offerings : They offer 3 programs, Zip-lining (Redwood Canopy Tours), Adventure(Sequoia Aerial Adventure) & Youth Adventure (Discovery Grove). We opted for Sequoia Aerial Adventure Tours : There's guided tour every half an hour in the morning. We went for 10:45 am tour for which we were told to arrive by 10:25 am. Each group can have max of 10 people & two tour guides. Initial Prep : We already signed waivers online to save time & paperwork. We were asked to optionally put wallet/keys/any loose items in to locker. We then headed to forest. We were given helmet & harness followed by tour guide demonstrating few basics. There was training area to try our hands on ropes & get comfortable with stripes. Tour : We started off actual adventure at about 11:30'ish. First few adventures were easy to boost confidence. After that, every junction usually had couple of options, one easy, another difficult so that individual can chose route suited for him/her. First adventure lasted about 30 minute followed by two zip lining course. Then came he break for 5-10 minute. Last adventure was higher from the ground and more challenging but was small loop so got finish within 10-15 minute. We were done by 12:30'ish. Tour Guide : Our tour guides were funny & kept motivating us. Note that out in the woods, tour guide aren't really with us all the time. They usually hang around at few junctions, but during the adventure itself, you are pretty much on your own. Safety : We were made to sign waiver (kind of like before Sky-diving which is much more riskier) which raised eyebrows on safety, but it was completely safe. I loved the fact that there are two safety clutches out of which at least one will be on the rope all the time, no matter how bad you perform. So there is simply no chance of you felling down. Price : We paid summer (Jun-Aug) prices (75$), bit higher then off-season prices 65 $. Our actual adventure (minus break/prep work) lasted just about 45 minutes, so I personally felt we paid bit more for what we got in return. In summary, it was amazingly fun, completely safe & bit pricey adventure. Highly recommended. read more

Went this past weekend to do the Sequoia Aerial Adventure tour. Included two mini zip lines and three levels of obstacles ranging from easy to challenging depending on which route taken. Tour started with watching a short video, getting fitted and familiar with the equipment & being informed of the do's & dont's. Once everyone was set and had practice with the equipment we headed out & was set free to choose which obstacles we wanted to go on. Pros: A lot of parking available. Check in was fast & easy. Tour guides were funny & helpful. Could tell safety is important - our gear was checked multiple times throughout the tour. Loved the positive vibes - no pressure to complete challenges & one of the rules were to only shout words of encouragement, which I personally thought was awesome. We had strangers cheering each other on & helping one another get thru obstacles. Thank goodness for all the trees! It did get hot while going thru the course but it was manageable. The facility & grounds around it are pretty & well maintained. Cons: Wish the tour was a little longer than 2 hours. Maybe at least by 30 minutes? We weren't able to do all the obstacles due to having to stay within the scheduled time frame. It was such an awesome experience! I highly recommend this place! Will be back to go on the Redwood Canopy Tour :) read more

A group of us went here yesterday to celebrate a birthday. We had all been zip-lining before so we wanted something a bit more challenging and different so we chose the Sequoia Adventure. We definitely got what we wanted! Some of the "elements" as they call them got my heart pumping. The course looks pretty easy from the outside, but as you are looking down 80 ft below at the river ravine sh*t gets real and one can't help but imagining the worst! The thrill of it all definitely adds to the fun and after you complete the course there is a sense of accomplishment and a little relief. The jump at the end is the grand finale', and there were a couple people in the group that almost opted out. But, with the support and encouragement of others we had 100% take the plunge. The website and online booking process is very sophisticated and efficient. The videos they provide on the website to preview the various adventures were nicely done and helpful. Parking and the check in process was easy and quick. The whole property looked very new and the grounds were impeccable. Our guides were professional and helpful and patient as well. I would definitely recommend Mt. Hermon Adventures if you are looking for a fun outing in the Santa Cruz area! read more

This was our first time to zip line, and what better way than through the redwoods with Mount Hermon Adventures!! This place was awesome! The crew was friendly and funny.

Booked a last minute tour at $150/person and me and my 25 year old daughter were so excited to have a fun time! The checking in was easy breezy, Tim at the front counter was helpful and nice.. so far so good. We were in a group of 8 with a few pre teens and a couple of teenagers.. no problem. Quick intro video about rules (no pregnant women, no gum chewing, no intoxicated people allowed) and we were off to the "practice area" aka ground school. Neither one of us has ever done a cabled aerial tour 60 feet in the air nor have we ever had to use the clips that are there to hold you and save your life if you fall.. so getting used to clipping them onto a cable takes some practice but you're only allowed a few tries before you start the death defying tightrope walk that is rated as easy. When I attempted to practice clipping in I was reprimanded by the 20 something tour guide Brooklyn and I should have gotten my money back at that point. Tanner, another guide, was sweet and understanding about being a first timer but the other 2 guides (Brooklyn and Marin) were obviously annoyed at our hesitation and lack of clip knowledge. Fast forward to a particularly frightening (for me) section of the tour and some profanity slipped out of my 47 year old adult mouth... not in ear shot of any kids btw.. just me and my daughter and Marin. I was reprimanded again and at this point I was done with this tour but I was 60 feet in the air between 2 huge redwood trees and no way to get down other than finish the course. Brooklyn and Marin kept commenting that we were not going to have time to zip line because we weren't moving fast enough and they were very condescending the entire 2 hours that I was playing Tarzan and Jane with a helmet and harness on. At the end.. the zip line part... Marin didn't stop the young teenager kid in time and he slammed into a tree and then zipped back into the middle of the line.. this kid had mentioned how scared he was to me during the course and he looked like he was done too. All the while blaming us for taking too long to clip the metal apparatus' onto and off of the lifesaving cable network. The 2 zip lines were fun but overall not worth the money nor the attitude from the guides.. a longer demo/practice time would have made all the difference. I realized after my profanity debacle that this is a faith-based organization disguised as a come-as-you-are adventure company.. had I'd known that in the beginning, I would have spent my money elsewhere. The rules, along with no gum chewing, should include no profanity or fear of any kind. Shoutout to Tanner for being down to earth and super cool! read more

Had such a blast with my husband. I always wanted to try something like this. I've done zip-lining before and was more interested in the different bridge elements between tress. The place is in a middle of redwoods, tall huge tress. We took the sequoia tour, it's 2 hours and has so many different bridges you can climb, from easy to difficult. Some were scary and challenging, which I love. But if that's too much for you, then they have the less scary ones. if you are afraid of heights, this may not be the right place for you. But the tour guides are always with your group and encourage you to keep going and give you hints how to cross and move forward. I want to go back! read more

Great experience! The setting is beautiful. I've been zip lining at a similar place in Sonoma area, and in my opinion this one is prettier. Our guides clearly enjoyed their jobs, making silly tree puns and jokes, answered questions anyone had regarding the forest or zip lining. The zip lines themselves were fun, and nobody got stuck halfway across or anything. I only wish there were more zip lines. I'd definitely come back another time. read more

My sister & I had an absolute blast here! If you're able, make a reservation and do Both the zipline canopy tour, and then the sequoia adventure ropes course. The views are indescribable from that high up! And the guide points out things like the tallest tree, the oldest, etc and other interesting facts, along with cheesy but funny jokes! Scott & Tanner were hilarious and friendly, helping us all easily get the hang of things even though almost everyone in our group had never ziplined before. There's a starting area where they give everyone a "mini class" and an opportunity to practice before the real thing. The guides are there every step of the way and the harnesses have an additional magnetic locking safety protection in the clip mechanism, so you can rest assured you are definitely very safe at every moment. It was SO much fun!! read more

Sequoia Aerial Adventure is like an Ewok Village with American Ninja Warrior lite challenges while strapped into a harness in the Redwood Forrest. It was tons of fun! -guides walk you through how to use the equipment which is close to fool proof once you get used to it -the course is self guided over logs, suspension bridges, ropes, tight ropes with two zip lines and a free fall at the end -it lasts about 2 hours The guides were fantastic. They were there to give advice and encouragement! There were all ages and sizes in our group. All of the "elements" (aka logs, ropes and such) require more core and lower body strength than upper body strength. There were only two elements that gave some of us pause (a Tarzan style rope jump from platform to platform and the free fall jump). The one that gave me the most trouble were the "churros". Churros are amazing but logs shaped like Churros are not. I would recomend this to anyone who wants to test their balancing skills, not afraid of heights, and wants to frolic in the trees! read more

This adventure park would have received 5 stars from me, but for our guide, white woman, 5' 4", with shaved light brown hair (don't know name). She was kinda surly and sarcastic with us, particularly with our kids, as if she was in a bad mood that day. For sure she made our kids dislike her, so hopefully they'll train her to be kinder to children. However, our other guide was fantastic and encouraging, and made up for it. This place has a fun and safe ropes course, as well as ziplining, and you feel like you're playing in the trees like squirrels and birds. There's a long training session beforehand, but then the thrills come right after. The facility and grounds overall are new-ish, clean and well-kept with picnic tables and a big field to frolick in. Very fun family outing to get your kids off their devices! read more

First ever dude day got off to a great star with this tour. Rolled out here with my mantourage of 6 (Thanks Janet O!) and had some brotastic times. Knocked it off the bucket list for about $85 a person. 1. Closest zip lining to SF at about 1.5 hours away. . *Tip - there's always traffic on 17, esp later in the afternoon. Plan accordingly! We got off to a rough start with a flat tire leaving the McD's parking lot but we still made it on time. 2. Super safe. Even though you're up hundreds of feet in 800 year old Redwood trees, you're ALWAYS strapped in.

The course is about 1.5 hrs long, 6 zips, with no extreme angles. There is a strait away where you can get up to 35mph. Excuse me while I kiss the sky.

For my husbands 40th birthday I was looking to do something unique & outdoorsy for him. Since neither of us had been zip lining, I thought it could be something fun & adventurous to make his birthday a memorable one. We were pretty pumped to do it. Although, I was nervous due to my fear of heights. Reservations were made easy by calling in advance. We had a good group of 8 that did the tour together. Payment was a snap & everyone was able to pay separately via credit cards. Once our waivers & weigh-one were done (there's a 250lb weight limit) we started instruction. We had two of the nicest instructors with us the entire time, from suit up to our last line. They were very patient & made sure everyone was comfortable before sending us down the line. Once I had two zip lines down, I felt much more at ease & enjoyed dangling from such beautiful redwoods. My only complaint is how short the zip lines are, the ride is over too quickly. All in all, my husband & our friends enjoyed our tour. read more

Come Here if Zip Lining is on Your Bucket List!!! This was my Wife & I's first activity together since before she was pregnant with my 2 girls! Once I booked the reservation, I immediately told her what she was in for..The Wife got so excited!!! We had a 10 0'clock reservation. We left San Jose early just incase there was traffic, construction or other type of delays. The map here on Yelp for once was accurate. As we parked, we both noticed how clean the grounds were and we took in a huge breath and exhale nasty San Jose air!! COUGH COUGH HACK HACK!! Once in the Adventure Center, we were both greeted by both receptionists and helped up fill out the paperwork. We used my best friend as our emergency contact. I even too a pic of it and sent it to him, he laughed! Then we both had to weigh in. 250lbs or No Adventure For You!!! Your weight. Honestly I watched what I ate & drank for the week prior due to the strict weight policy they have! All said and done we waited outside to be greeted by Cameron and Lucas who were our guides. Since I booked our Adventure early, there was only 3 of us on the Adventure. The 3rd person was visiting from Ontario Canada, nice guy! I took several action shots of him, even thou he rented a GoPro. Once our guides got us strapped in the harness, which will show off you Gut and Junk, or Biff and Man-Toe!! Anyways, don't be ashamed!!! Oh yeah... We all headed across the road where the Adventure begins!!! The guides demonstrated how and what, the do's and dont's while on the line. 6-Lines and Bridge, just not enough!! While Zipping, I was so relaxed! The fresh air, nature, the silence! When we left, I mentioned to the Wife, I felt like I just left a spa! I was that relaxed! This adventure is great for small groups. A group larger than 9 people, will be spilt into 2 groups. It's about how many people can safely stand a platform. If your a large mammal, or you have several medical conditions, don't waste your time. Find another adventure. I will return, with friends for another adventure. read more

One of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. It was so much fun! Our tour guides were Dylan and Robbie. They were playful, hilarious and very engaging with all of us in the group. If you guys ever decide to come I would recommend them as guides! My group of friends and I decided on participating in the Redwood Canopy Tours that consisted of 6 zip lies and one bridge for $89 that lasted a little over 2 hours. It's worth it! You get to explore the red woods while zip lining through the forest. What more can you ask for! I'ts extremely fun and I would recommend it to everyone! read more

With my cousin visiting from the Netherlands, I wanted to take her to do something out of the ordinary and adventurous...and what could be more unique than ziplining through the beautiful redwoods of Mount Hermon?! The tour is approximately two hours but it really feels so much faster because of all of the adrenaline pumping fun of flying through trees. Our guides, Abby and Jasmine couldn't have been more informative and friendly while helping us zip around the tree line while also dropping some Redwood fun facts. And the scenery!! Seriously so beautiful. Whether you're an adrenaline junkie or just looking for something new to do in the area, I really can't recommend this enough! read more

If you've been zip-lining internationally, this might be a little less 'extreme' but still a good time! I've been zip-lining once before [in Puerto Vallarta] and it really does make a difference when you have great tour guides who make the experience that much more fun. Our guides were Sara and Mitchell, both sweet and hilarious. We came on Friday the 13th but you wouldn't know it by the way we had such a smooth trip. The views of the redwoods are gorgeous from above, my sisters and I were both enthralled with the beauty of what's in our own backyard. Sara and Mitchell also gave us great history factoids about the trees and I definitely appreciate the forests that much more. So thank you to Mt Hermon for making my sister's 30th birthday a blast! Tips: - Bring a camera that has a lanyard to secure on your gear. Remember the crew is not responsible for your stupidity if you happen to drop your camera. - Dress comfortably and appropriately for the weather.
