    With a perfect track record across hundreds of reviews, this family-run operation consistently delivers memorable outdoor adventures in the Hocking Hills area. Jason and his wife, along with guides Aaron and Kayce, get praised repeatedly for their patience, safety focus, and genuine passion for what they do. The guides aren't just skilled at climbing and rappelling instruction—they're also nature educators who share fascinating insights about local plants, geology, and ecosystems throughout each adventure. First-timers with height anxieties report feeling completely safe and supported, while experienced adventurers appreciate the unique rock formations on the private property. The Rock Challenge and rappelling tours are especially popular, drawing families and couples who want something beyond the typical tourist experience. Reviewers consistently mention feeling like more than just customers—the personal, down-to-earth approach makes each group feel special. The owner Steve gets specific recognition for flexibility with rescheduling due to weather. While one visitor mentioned an uncomfortable political conversation from a guide, the overwhelming consensus is that these adventures are approachable for all skill levels (ages 6+) and represent the highlight of many Hocking Hills trips.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Amazing Experience for the Whole Family! High Rock Adventures was an absolute gem from start to finish! First off, the parking lot was spacious and easy to find—always a great start to any adventure. We chose the rappelling-only option and couldn’t have been happier. From the initial safety class to our three trips down the cliff and even picking up some souvenirs afterward, we spent about 4.5 hours total—and loved every minute of it. The guides were fantastic—funny, incredibly knowledgeable, and very clearly passionate about what they do. It was also awesome to see so many veterans on staff. As a veteran myself, that hit close to home in the best way possible. We even got to meet the owner, who was super friendly and clearly cares deeply about the quality and safety of the experience. I’ve been rappelling many times before, and I have to say—this was one of the most safety-focused operations I’ve ever seen. No free-falls here. They use a double friction system (what I’d call a double friction bite), which gives an added layer of control and peace of mind. Even if your brake hand slips, you're not going anywhere. Best of all, this was the perfect adventure for my whole family. My 9- and 13-year-old daughters had a blast and handled the experience like champs, thanks in large part to the encouragement and professionalism of the staff. My wife absolutely loved it too. Whether you're new to rappelling or a seasoned pro, this is an adventure you’ll remember. Can’t recommend it highly enough—book it!
