Trampoline Parks in Ottawa: Flying Squirrel vs Xtreme

From Flying Squirrel's climbing walls and adventure playground on Cyrville Road to the club-lit Xtreme Nights in Kanata, Ottawa's trampoline parks deliver gravity-defying fun for families, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone seeking an exhilarating workout disguised as pure entertainment.

Trampoline parks have evolved far beyond simple bouncing. Ottawa's parks now add dodgeball courts, crash pits, basketball dunk courts, climbing walls, and kids' ropes courses. Whether you're planning a birthday party that will have kids talking for weeks, seeking a cardio workout that doesn't feel like exercise, or simply want to experience the joy of weightlessness, this guide covers two trampoline parks in Ottawa: Flying Squirrel in the east end and Xtreme Trampoline Park in Kanata.


Key Highlights

TL;DR: Flying Squirrel (1901 Cyrville Rd) adds climbing walls, an adventure playground and Friday and Saturday Neon Lights to its trampolines. Xtreme Trampoline Park (Kanata) has been open since 2013 and runs Xtreme Night on Fridays. A 60-minute jump costs $25 at Flying Squirrel and $27 (tax included) at Xtreme. Grip socks are required at both.

Birthday Parties

Trampoline park birthday party celebration Trampoline parks make unforgettable birthday party venues

Both Ottawa trampoline parks offer comprehensive birthday party packages that take the stress out of planning.

What's Typically Included

  • A reserved party table or private party room
  • Jump time for the guests (two hours at Flying Squirrel, one hour at Xtreme)
  • A dedicated party host
  • Pizza and drinks
  • A gift for the guest of honour (a free jump pass and plush toy at Flying Squirrel, an Xtreme T-shirt at Xtreme)

Booking Tips

Book Early: Flying Squirrel asks you to reserve well ahead so your date isn't taken. Xtreme takes online party reservations only if the date is at least a week away, and asks you to phone for shorter notice.

Confirm Headcount: Packages come with a set number of guests and charge extra for more. Flying Squirrel's parties are for 10 to 22 guests, and Xtreme's Big Bounce party is for up to 10 jumpers.

Communicate Dietary Needs: Xtreme allows a nut-free cake or cupcakes in the party room and no other outside food, and asks you to enquire about allergies. Tell either park about allergies when you book.

Arrive Early: Flying Squirrel asks guests to arrive 30 minutes before the start time to fill out waivers and check in. Xtreme asks every participant to complete a waiver before arrival.

Party Pricing

Flying Squirrel's Bounce and Soar party is $300 Monday to Thursday and $400 Friday to Sunday and holidays for 10 guests, with up to 12 more at $30 or $40 each. It includes 2 hours of jump time within 2.5 hours of party time. Xtreme's Big Bounce party for up to 10 jumpers is $319 Monday to Thursday and $407 Friday to Sunday, plus tax, with extra jumpers at $25 each. Socks are not included at either park, and both parks update their packages, so confirm on the Flying Squirrel parties page or the Xtreme parties page.

Fitness and Adult Programming

Trampoline fitness class workout Trampoline fitness burns calories while feeling like play

Trampoline parks aren't just for kids. Adults can jump during regular open sessions at both Ottawa parks, and one park has run a trampoline fitness class.

Why Trampoline Fitness Works

Bouncing on trampolines is cardiovascular exercise, and many people find it gentler on the joints than running. Even a short session works your legs and core, which is why it tires people out faster than they expect.

Xtreme Trampoline - Xtremerobics

Xtreme lists Xtremerobics, a one-hour high-impact fitness class on the trampolines, as a Wednesday 8-9 PM class at $20 each or $180 for ten. Its programs page currently says the class is cancelled until further notice, so check the programs page or call before you plan around it.

Open Jump for Adults

Both parks welcome adults during regular open jump sessions. At Xtreme, supervising adults can stand on the platforms around the trampolines for free, though the park encourages adults to buy a ticket and jump. Many adults find bouncing with (or without) kids to be surprisingly exhausting and genuinely fun exercise.


Tips for First-Time Visitors

What to Wear

Recommended:

  • Athletic wear or comfortable clothing
  • Shorts or leggings (nothing restrictive)
  • T-shirt or athletic top
  • Hair tied back securely
  • Remove all jewellery

Required:

  • Trampoline grip socks - buy a pair at the park or bring your own (Flying Squirrel accepts other parks' socks, while Xtreme requires its own socks)

Avoid:

  • Jeans (too restrictive)
  • Loose clothing that could catch
  • Anything with zippers or buttons
  • Shoes (must be removed)

Before You Go

Sign Waivers Online: Both facilities allow online waiver completion. Do this before arrival to save time.

Check Hours: Operating hours vary by day and season. Verify before heading out.

Book Online: Reserve jump times online when possible, especially for weekends and holidays.

Eat Light: Heavy meals before bouncing can lead to discomfort. Eat something light 1-2 hours before.

Bring Water: Jumping is physically demanding. Stay hydrated.

Safety Guidelines

  • Follow all posted rules and staff instructions
  • Jump within your ability level
  • Stay on the court with jumpers of similar size (Xtreme allows at most two people of similar size per trampoline)
  • No double bouncing, which means timing your jump to launch someone else higher
  • No double flips, and no flips beyond your skill level (Flying Squirrel does not recommend somersaults on its courts)
  • Land on both feet, with your knees bent
  • Stay aware of jumpers around you
  • Do not jump if you are pregnant or injured (both parks post this rule)

Managing Energy Levels

Children (and adults) often underestimate how tiring trampoline jumping can be. If you are unsure, start with a 60-minute session and add time at the counter if you still have energy.


Alternatives When Trampoline Parks Are Busy

Indoor entertainment alternatives for families Ottawa offers several indoor alternatives for active fun

When trampoline parks reach capacity or you want variety, consider these alternatives:

Indoor Playgrounds - Cosmic Adventures and Funhaven offer similar active entertainment for younger children with climbing structures and slides.

Laser Tag - LaserMaxx on St. Laurent Boulevard and Funhaven's two-level laser tag arena provide high-energy entertainment without the physical exhaustion of jumping.

Rock Climbing - Altitude Gym, Coyote Rock Gym, and other climbing facilities offer active challenges for all ages.

Swimming - Ottawa's indoor pools provide another full-body workout in a fun environment.

Bowling - Multiple bowling alleys around Ottawa offer active entertainment suitable for groups.


FAQ

An hour of open jump costs $25 at Flying Squirrel and $27 with tax at Xtreme. Longer sessions cost more: 90 minutes is $32 at Flying Squirrel and $35 with tax at Xtreme, and 120 minutes is $40 at both. Grip socks are extra at both parks.

What's the minimum age for trampoline parks?

Both Ottawa parks have areas for young children. Flying Squirrel has a toddler rate for ages 6 and under, a Kiddie Trampoline Court and a toddler zone in its adventure playground. Xtreme has Kiddie Kourt for jumpers under 42 inches, with open jump for ages 4 and under.

Do I need special socks for trampoline parks?

Yes. Both parks require trampoline grip socks. Xtreme sells them for $3.50 with tax and requires its own socks, while Flying Squirrel accepts socks from other trampoline parks. Flying Squirrel lists $4.50 a pair for socks added to a party booking.

Which is better: Flying Squirrel or Xtreme Trampoline?

Flying Squirrel adds climbing walls, a ropes course, an adventure playground and Friday and Saturday Neon Lights, and it is open on Mondays. Xtreme is the Kanata choice, open since 2013, with Friday Xtreme Night and a private-room party package. Choose based on location and the attractions you want.

Do trampoline parks offer birthday parties?

Yes. Both parks offer birthday packages with party time, pizza and a host. Flying Squirrel's Bounce and Soar party starts at $300 Monday to Thursday and $400 Friday to Sunday for 10 guests. Xtreme's Big Bounce party starts at $319 and $407 plus tax for up to 10 jumpers.

Is trampoline jumping good exercise?

Yes. Jumping is cardiovascular exercise that works your legs and core, and many people find it gentler on the joints than running. Xtreme has listed a one-hour Xtremerobics fitness class, but its programs page says the class is cancelled until further notice, so check before you go.

What should I wear to a trampoline park?

Wear comfortable athletic clothing, such as shorts or leggings with a t-shirt. Avoid jeans, loose clothing, or anything with zippers. Remove all jewellery. Trampoline grip socks are required, and shoes come off on the trampoline courts.

Do I need to book trampoline park visits in advance?

Booking online is recommended, especially for weekends, holidays and school breaks. Flying Squirrel says a time-specific ticket guarantees admission, while a walk-in jump pass is not guaranteed because sessions can sell out. Xtreme also takes bookings online.

Are trampoline parks safe?

Both Ottawa facilities prioritize safety with padded surfaces, trained staff, safety briefings, and specific rules about jumping within skill levels. Injuries can occur with any physical activity, but following rules and staff instructions minimizes risk.

What is Xtreme Night at Xtreme Trampoline?

Xtreme Night is a Friday evening session with club lights and music. Xtreme Night Jr (7-9 PM) is for jumpers under 12, and Xtreme Night Regular (9-11 PM) is for older jumpers and adults. Each costs $39 with tax and includes two hours of jump time and a free drink.


Final Thoughts

Ottawa's trampoline parks turn a simple childhood activity into a full outing. Flying Squirrel on Cyrville Road adds climbing walls, a ropes course and an adventure playground to its trampoline courts. Xtreme Trampoline in Kanata offers west-end convenience, Friday Xtreme Night and a park that has been open since 2013.

The cost, $25 to $27 per person for an hour of jumping at the two parks, buys genuine physical activity in an era when getting kids (and adults) moving can be challenging. Unlike screen-based entertainment, trampoline time exhausts energy, builds coordination, and creates shared experiences worth remembering.

Book your socks, sign your waivers, and prepare to bounce. Your legs will thank you tomorrow—right after they stop being sore.
