Outdoor Gravity Park ID 4799
How many people can roll together?
Up to 3 people can go zorbing in the OGO. We sell our rolls by the person. 1 paid roll is good for 1 roll for 1 person. If 3 people are rolling together, each person would need to purchase 1 roll for a total of 3 rolls. The 3 Rolls ticket type can actually be shared for 1-3 people to ride together.
Can the little ones ride by themselves?
Our age restriction is 5 years old with an adult, and 6 years old to go by yourself for the OGO.
Is there a height or weight restriction for the OGO?
There no height restriction but a 260 lb weight limit.
Do you tumble down the hill?
No, with the H2OGO you slip and slip along the bottom of the OGO.
How many courses do you have?
We have 3 courses: the Speed Demon, the FUNnel, and the Extreme Zig-Zag.
Should I bring a bathing suit and towel?
We have wet rides during the summer months. If you're prepared to get wet, bring your desired attire (towel, bathing suit, or a change of clothes). We have changing rooms on site. Or if you'd rather drip-dry, we're cool with that too! During the cooler months when temperatures drop below 50 degrees, all rides will be dry. This means you will not get wet and have no need to bring these items.
Is there a height or weight restriction for the OGO?
There no height restriction but a 260 lb weight limit.
What is OGO?
The OGO is an 11-foot transparent sphere constructed of 300 square feet of plastic. We offer a dry or wet version. The H2OGO wet version is a wet in wild experience and the most popular way to roll down a hill, the water inside makes it slippery for riders to slide inside, no dizziness or tumbling, just good clean fun!
Is there a wait time?
On busy days there could be a short wait but we have added another track so our capacity has increased. Over the summer if you want to avoid the wait we recommend you come before 11:00 am or after 4:00 pm.
What is zorbing?
We get asked a lot about zorbing and is rolling in the OGO the same thing. Basically the answer is “yes” but we like to think we are MORE FUN! Zorbing is an activity of travelling downhill inside a large air-cushioned hollow ball.
Is Outdoor Gravity Park affiliated with Zorb?
No, we have no affiliation with Zorb. The Outdoor Gravity Park is located on the old Zorb Smoky Mountain site and we do offer zorbing as one of our activities. The Outdoor Gravity Park has added tracks, made the rolls longer, and the experience is superb. Our partner OGO site in New Zealand is run by the founder of Zorb.
Up to 3 people can go zorbing in the OGO. We sell our rolls by the person. 1 paid roll is good for 1 roll for 1 person. If 3 people are rolling together, each person would need to purchase 1 roll for a total of 3 rolls. The 3 Rolls ticket type can actually be shared for 1-3 people to ride together.

On busy days there could be a short wait but we have added another track so our capacity has increased. Over the summer if you want to avoid the wait we recommend you come before 11:00 am or after 4:00 pm.
What is zorbing?
We get asked a lot about zorbing and is rolling in the OGO the same thing. Basically the answer is “yes” but we like to think we are MORE FUN! Zorbing is an activity of travelling downhill inside a large air-cushioned hollow ball.
Is Outdoor Gravity Park affiliated with Zorb?
No, we have no affiliation with Zorb. The Outdoor Gravity Park is located on the old Zorb Smoky Mountain site and we do offer zorbing as one of our activities. The Outdoor Gravity Park has added tracks, made the rolls longer, and the experience is superb. Our partner OGO site in New Zealand is run by the founder of Zorb.
