Opened on December 2015, Austin Heights Water & Adventure Park is one of the newest theme parks in Johor Bahru, Malaysia.

Adventure Park
The Adventure Rope Course has an age requirement of 12-years old so it’s not for younger kiddos. This high element has 7 routes with 51 different obstacles. There are 2 areas where the adventure rope course lies: one outside the entrance of the park (sheltered) and the other facing the water park (outdoor). You will begin with a mock obstacle course being taught how to use the equipment (Karabina & Safe Roller) and maneuver along the safety lines. They even had a mini zip line where we were taught to zip down safely.






Sheltered: The first 2 loops started off with the lower levels at about 5-metres high, above the park’s drift-kart track.





















Sheltered: The 3rd and 4th loops consists of more challenging obstacles at a higher tier.





















Outdoor: Hop on to Tarzan Swinger at Loop 5 & 6. Do a Big Zipper at Loop 7 to complete your course!


















Though there were only 2 of us monkeying around, but it still took us a good 2.5-hours to complete all 7 courses. So, expect to have longer waiting time during weekends and holiday seasons.
Water Park
At one glance, the water park isn’t as huge as most slides are concentrated on two main towers of different levels. These slides will end at the splash pool leading to lazy river, thus the floats used for slides can also be used in lazy river. There is a wave pool, but the “waves” only activated once every hour. Overall, it’s still a fun park to spend soak up your day, especially after the adventure park!
