Take a thrill ride via zip line
It should come as no surprise that even “idle” time these days takes on an extreme quality. No, building your Clash of Clans fortress doesn’t count. Life’s frenzied nature begs for equally intense activities that fit a new definition of relaxation. This revised human quality gives rise to an increase in extreme sports.
Add zip lining to the list. And Manhattan, we’ve got our very own zip line area. Wildwood Outdoor Adventure Park fits with the exciting recent additions to Manhattan’s growing list of entertainment options. And wow, what a thrilling ride visitors will experience.
Seven amazing zip line rides: some short, though no less exhilarating; some longer … oh, and what a sight to behold. Dizzying runs among wooded regions of the Flint Hills, the ground floor breezes past as you sail along among the tree tops. If zipping from tree to tree in semidizzying fashion is your notion of a thrill ride, then Wildwood Outdoor Adventure Park is where you’re meant to be. And the finish: a 30-foot freefall drop! Invite visitors to experience the thrilling adventure at Wildwood. Let’s get wild, Manhattan!
Wildwood is located just a mile east from the Kansas River and McDowell Creek Road at 375 Johnson Road near Alan Clark Body Shop off K-177 Highway. More information at Wildwoodoutdooradventurepark.com.
