How to make a water obstacle course?

How much does it cost to build an obstacle course?
The cost of building a Challenge Course depends on a variety of factors including the size of the project, whether it’s a tree or pole course, the landscape, and fluctuation in the cost of materials. To give a ballpark figure, many of the courses we build range in price from $15k to $150k. In 2025, at an estimated 60 to 260 hours required to develop a 1-hour course, you can expect to pay roughly $5,450 USD to over $13,500 USD to get a fully polished course, in addition to the cost of your SME (Subject Matter Expert).
