Obstacle Course
The way we see it, life is like an obstacle course. Every day brings its own challenges and one has to figure out a new way of dealing with each of these challenges. Different obstacles require different solutions. What works for one is not necessarily going to work for the next. Similarly, in our everyday lives different problems require different approaches.

The Bergkroon obstacle course comprises a series of activities that present participants with a physical challenge. With the right guidance, however, the obstacle course also becomes a great way of instilling spiritual values. Balance is crucial for completing the course; in the same way, it is necessary to have a balanced approach to life.
On the course, the ground between the separate obstacles is quite level. It allows for easier movement. It provides one with an opportunity to catch one's breath and to prepare for the next challenge. And with each new challenge, one discovers in a fun way that it is much easier to overcome obstacles with the help of those around you.
Low Ropes Course
Low ropes courses are activities that occur on ropes suspended no higher than two metres above the ground. These activities offer participants the opportunity to grow in various areas:
- communication
- planning
- conflict resolution
- creative thinking
- teamwork
- leadership
- optimal utilization of resources
It is a low-risk activity that is sure to be a lot of fun.
High Ropes Course
The high ropes tower is a high-risk activity. It requires participants to perform comparatively easy tasks on ropes that are suspended quite high above the ground. Safety gear ensures the complete safety of the participants, but the fear of heights can make this a very challenging activity.
The purpose of the high rope tower is to motivate participants to push themselves a little harder than they would under normal circumstances. It encourages boldness and confidence in one's own ability. The boost in personal motivation that derives from this activity is a valuable and life-enhancing experience.
