However, as the trees are low, the ropes are placed on posts scattered in the middle of the forest. The route is 378 meters, that is, almost two hours over the treetops twelve meters above the ground.

To practice tree climbing, it is not necessary to be an athlete, you just need a lot of willingness and courage to overcome the challenges. With the supervision of trained monitors and the tree climbing kit (chair, safety cable, carabiner, pulley and helmet), the adventurers stimulate individual capacity, exercising the body and mind, developing inner balance and relieving daily stress through adrenaline.
