Circuit X Adventure Park — Attraction in Al Hidayriyyat

Are your kids climbing the walls while home schooling? Give them ropes to climb and be rewarded with an outdoor adventure at the new Circuit X Ropes Park on Hudayriyat Island

When Abu Dhabi parents asked for more outdoor and active things to do for their children, MODON and the city answered their calls with Hudayriyat Island. The beachside destination was already the leading spot on in the city for running, cycling, swimming, and they recently added high ropes, BMX and skateboarding to that long list of fun activities that you can do at the sporting hub. Circuit X in Adventure Village is the newest must-visit destination for families in Abu Dhabi.

Three teenagers affiliated with me, Lizzy of Arabia, were invited to give the Ropes Park and what they found were spine-tingling thrills and a few sections of the Black Circuit that were not for the faint of heart or the acrophobic.

ROPES PARK AT CIRCUIT X The ropes park at Circuit X offers three levels of high ropes challenges, plus 3 extra challenges you can add on if you like. We’ll break it down by age before we get to the review. High Ropes Course Kids 7 years+ who are over 121cm begin with the Green Kids circuit which takes them on an introductory loop of different obstacles. If they are confident in their skills and with Level 1 course, they can move on to the Blue Scout Circuit for their second lap. It’s recommended for kids 11 years and older but kids who can complete level 1 with ease are allowed to move as long as they meet the height requirements even if they are under 11. If your kids have had any ropes course experience, they are likely to find the high ropes course here relatively easy.

The Black Circuit stands at a daunting 10m above the ground is only for teens that are 15-years and over, and it’s pretty intimidating—even for some experienced climbers.

The team hooks you up into your safety gear and gives you a brief tutorial on how to do the ropes and how to get out of a jam, which came in handy on the Black Circuit for sure. If their advice is just not enough, don’t worry! Help is never too far away, and there is always a staff member nearby to talk you out of a tough spot on the course or help you through it—whatever you find you need most.

Our group of three teenaged girls loved all levels of the ropes course, but they did find one section particularly hairy and needed a bit of coaching from the staff below to help them through. Thank goodness the Black Circuit was not too busy on the morning we came, because it took them a little while to get through it. The freefall and zipline were by far the group favorites though.

Freefall The freefall allows you to plunge 13 metres to the ground in a controlled platform jump. All three thought this was super fun and are very anxious to get back and do it again and again.

Zip line A favorite with kids, the zip line descends from the highest point in the ropes course 100m across the whole park. It’s thrilling and so nice to see the island from a bird’s eye view.

Climbing wall The climbing wall is open to kids from 110cm and/or 6 years in age. The 50ft high wall is one of the most challenging climbing walls open to kids in Abu Dhabi in the younger age group. Helpful and friendly staff are on hand throughout the park for safety, guidance and encouragement.

WHERE IS CIRCUIT X? Circuit X is part of the newly opened leisure facilities on Al Hudayriyat Island. The Adventure Village area is easy to find. Just take your first right after the bridge and drive until you see the new Bab al Nojoum glamping complex on the left side of the road and the huge dome of 321 Sports...

Our experience at Circuit X Adventure was absolutely fantastic! The obstacle course is well-designed and suitable for all age groups and fitness levels — truly something for everyone. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and professional. The ticketing team and safety coordinators made us feel right at home, offering a thorough safety briefing and clear instructions on what to do and what to avoid. It was our first time visiting, and their guidance made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

The facility was clean, and all the equipment was in great condition, which definitely added to our confidence and enjoyment. The coordinators were patient, attentive, and encouraging — especially with my kids — ensuring that each of us was challenged and fully engaged throughout the session.

We took on the lower and upper obstacle courses, tried the zip line, climbing wall, and even the free fall — all were thrilling! There’s also a BMX adventure course which we’re excited to try on our next visit. We highly recommend doing the course at night as we did; the floodlights provide excellent visibility, and the cooler evening weather makes it even more enjoyable. You can bring your own water or grab refreshments like water and ice cream from the onsite vendor.

We also appreciated the Fazza discount, which made an already great value even better. Overall, Circuit X Adventure is a must-try outdoor activity that tests your endurance, strength, and courage. Perfect for families, friends, or team-building events. We'll definitely...
