Camp Fimfo Texas Hill Country Takes Adventure to New Heights with Alpine Coaster

Camp Fimfo Texas Hill Country, an elevated camping and glamping resort that opened 18 months ago in New Braunfels, Texas, welcoming a second location last summer in nearby Waco, is launching a new experience for both guests as well as local thrill seekers and visitors not staying at the resort.

Fimfo Adventures will debut on Saturday, February 18 at Camp Fimfo Texas Hill Country featuring Texas’s first alpine coaster.

Reservations, which go live later this month online, are highly recommended and can be accessed at https://campfimfo.com/texas-hill-country/adventures.

“We are so excited to be able to offer this experience to both our guests and non-guests,” said Tessa McCrackin, chief marketing officer for Northgate Resorts’ Camp Fimfo.

“Fimfo Adventures is really for people who enjoy pushing their limits while enjoying the beauty of the outdoors. It’s also for those who want to step outside their comfort zones and feel a sense of excitement. The views from the adventures are just incredible.”  

The Cliff Carver is Texas’s first and only alpine coaster using gravity to propel riders and their sleds down the track.

The use of physics, along with the pull of gravity, creates a smooth yet exhilarating ride down the hillside. The track bobs and weaves downhill for nearly a mile offering stunning views while whipping along the track. This white-knuckle jaunt can go as fast as 25 miles per hour or, for those who want a more scenic excursion, sleds are equipped with manual brakes for leisurely rides.  

Single riders are $20 and must be nine years or older. Tandem riders are $35 and must be a minimum of three years old with drivers aged 18 years or older.

Non-resort guests can also purchase a Camp Fimfo day pass to enjoy all the amenities available, such as mini-golf and an array of water attractions.  

The River Zip, a forthcoming adventure still under construction, is the first of its kind and spans three football fields with a pair of side-by-side zips providing a dual journey that only adds to the excitement.

The adventure will begin at base camp with a ride through the resort before ascending the hill and past a grove of towering cypress trees finally resting at the top of the cliff where 360-degree panoramic views await from Texas’s first 16-story floating platform with the Guadalupe River flowing below.

Adventurers will return to base camp through the sky trail, made up of a series of hanging bridges.
