The Location
Six acres of beautiful forestland on Mount Hood, on the historic Barlow trail, feature towering evergreens, the rushing Zig Zag river, and the sense that you are truly away - out of town, able to rest, relax and focus in a new way. Hike in the quiet forest, explore a waterfall, or enjoy our many mountain attractions, between five and 20 minutes away.
The Lodge
The Paradise Trail Lodge, a historic roadhouse from the Barlow trail, can accommodate up to 30 for retreats, vacations and family reunions. The lodge is comfortable enough to be relaxing, rustic enough that you just feel at home.
The Challenge Course
Since 1988 we've worked with thousands of people on our low- and high-ropes course. Low-risk events like the Buddy Walk and the Valley of Decision and high-risk events like the Leap of Faith and the 90 ft. Super High provide a real-life laboratory for learning about yourself, your team, and what it takes to be successful.
