During our Friendsgiving trip, our group of 16 (8 adults and 8 kids aged 1.5-11) spent an entire (rainy) day at Fritz’s Adventure in Branson.
From the moment we walked in, the kids were bouncing with excitement, and I hardly even saw 11-year-old Jett once he got inside ... he was ready to explore everything. Fritz’s Adventure is 80,000+ square feet of indoor climbing, sliding, tunneling, and ropes challenges, designed to keep kids of all ages moving, laughing, and learning through play.
Our visit was provided free of charge, but all opinions and experiences are my own.
Adventure for Every Age
Sky Trail Ropes Course: A few parent-child duos in our group tackled the Sky Trail Ropes Course, a gigantic multi-story ropes course with over 40 different paths of varying obstacles. You can balance on a tightrope, test your skill on the rolling log, and navigate other fun challenges. The minimum height is 48”, though guests 42” and taller can participate with a paid adult chaperone. It’s big, daring, and an incredible way to build confidence while having a blast.
Sky Tykes Ropes Course: Our 4-year-old daughter tackled the Sky Tykes Ropes Course, designed specifically for smaller adventurers. Mom or dad can walk alongside, sharing in the excitement as little ones conquer their fears and develop courage in a safe, fun environment. The Sky Tykes course has a maximum height of 48”, making it perfect for preschoolers and early elementary kids.
Fritz’s City Wall: One dad in our group scaled the Fritz’s City Wall, a 48-foot indoor urban climbing wall. Climbers ascend fire escapes, maneuver over boarded windows, and use window sills and downspouts as footholds — all while safely harnessed with industry-leading auto-belay technology. Watching him navigate the wall was inspiring, and it’s a must-try for anyone seeking a big thrill.
Fritz’s Forest: Even our youngest adventurer had plenty to do in Fritz’s Forest, a play area specifically designed for small children. Here, kids can climb on kid-safe rocks, crawl through logs, and explore miniature treehouses — letting their imagination run wild in a safe, age-appropriate environment.
Other highlights our group loved included slides, underground tunnels, extreme slides, a real airplane to explore, and a laser maze. Each area has a variety of physical challenges and opportunities for problem-solving, perfect for kids of all ages and adults looking to join in on the fun.
Unlocking Your Inner Fritz
Fritz’s Adventure is inspired by Fritz from The Swiss Family Robinson, encouraging kids and adults alike to explore, face fears, and challenge themselves. Our kids wanted to do everything, and the adults did their best to keep up.
By the end of the day, everyone was smiling, sweaty, and talking about their favorite obstacles.
