Upward Architecture designed this compact support building for High Trek Adventures, an outdoor adventure park in Everett, Washington, known for its high-ropes course, ziplines, and experiential leadership training programs. The new structure houses guest check-in, staff offices, and accessible restrooms, serving as the operational hub for the park.
The building’s layout prioritizes guest flow and staff efficiency, placing the check-in counter front-and-center to greet arriving visitors while providing secure, easy access to back-of-house areas for employees. Durable, low-maintenance finishes were selected to withstand the demands of a high-traffic, outdoor-focused operation. Large windows and a simple gable form tie the structure to the surrounding site, offering visibility to the ropes course and reinforcing High Trek’s approachable, adventurous brand.
