Families are truly the heartbeat of Mount Pleasant and we celebrate that every chance we get — both at home and in the businesses we support. Recently, my family discovered a gem that we believe every family should experience: Charleston Adventure Forest. Owned by the Hankinson Family and run with the help of their four adult children, this place offers an adventure that’s a perfect spot for families to unplug and connect.
In today’s whirlwind of soccer games, music practice and endless homework, it’s rare to find time for something that boosts both confidence and family bonds. Stepping into Charleston Adventure Forest is like hitting the reset button. The property has something for everyone: the little ones can enjoy animal encounters with mini horses, goats, pigs, alpacas and reptiles — feeding and petting them is a must.
For the kids, there are zipline courses tailored for ages 5-12, while adults can tackle the Adult Canopy, which features seven ziplines and three sky bridges. And let’s not forget the tallest rock wall in Charleston, standing an impressive 65 feet! But it’s not only fun and games; they also offer blacksmith classes where you can craft your own oyster shucker, knife or ornament.
Charleston Adventure Forest is a place where you can lose track of time, have so much fun that you’ll still be talking about it weeks later and make memories that last a lifetime. They’re also fantastic at supporting local groups, hosting everything from birthday parties to school and church events, always with the goal of bringing smiles and building confidence.
So why not step out of your routine and dive into an adventure that’s as thrilling as it is memorable?
