The big strong point of the adventure course is that it is accessible to all , from the youngest to the older ones. A park which offers this activity generally has different types of routes available for adventurers of all ages .
In addition, it will not be difficult for you to find a park near you , since there are any in all of France.
If you have never heard of this activity, here is a small reminder: The adventure course is made up of various workshops installed between the trees, at different levels of height depending on the level sought.
It is to be differentiated from the tree climbing , which consists in reaching the top of the trees without fixed installations and which is a registered brand.
The adventure course is also called height acrobatic course (PAH) . The concept has existed since the 1930s, but it has really democratized in our country from the year 2000.
Today, hundreds of Parks offering the adventure route are distributed through The country for the pleasure of all and benefit from an increased attendance rate.
What makes this activity an adventure accessible to everyone is first of all the standards in force that impose two important points to respect:
Safety: installations must be checked daily and control by a specialized organization must be carried out at least once a year. Security is also ensured by the preparation of visitors to the activity. Thus, an instructor explains, as soon as you arrive, the progress of the activity and takes you on a compulsory initiation course for all.
Nature: Adventure routes will have to respect the town planning code. An arboreal diagnosis must also be carried out every year to verify the condition of Trees that support activities.
In addition, its fun side attracts many families looking for entertainment. The workshops can take many forms:
- Tyroliennes of different sizes and lianas
- Many kinds of bridges: monkey bridge, Nepalese bridge, net bridge, Tibetan bridge ...
- Suspended walkways: oscillating trunks, swings, barrels
- Vertical or horizontal ladders
These workshops are spread over routes generally organized by color depending on the difficulty they represent (from green to black) as for ski slopes, with variations for children, for sportsmen, etc. .
You are hooked throughout the routes thanks to a "lifeline", and have individual equipment (harness, lanyards ...) which allow you to evolve in perfect safety.
This ride in trees finally represents a sports leisure ideal for your family outings. This is an opportunity to fill up with adventure and have fun in a natural setting and in the company of yours.
