Whether you want an extensive adventure park in trees or on poles, or a series of bridges weaving through the roof structure of a building.
The Adventure Developments “Adventure Trail” can be tailored to do it all.
Product Images
The Adventure Trail is "An exciting journey based ropes course, which we can adapt in many ways to suit your objectives".
Participants are safely secured to a continuous or semi continuous belay system throughout their journey from start to finish.
Participants begin at a start station where they are attached to the safety system, they then make their way through the course to the finish. (If the course is not a “closed loop” it will almost always end with an exhilarating zip line or a fan descender descent)
Fully Customisable:
Although we do have a number of designs on file, and more than 50 standard elements to select from, the layout is almost always customised to maximise the space available and features of your site.
Our blending of tension guys and compression braces gives us alot of flexibility with the layout of the course, and there is no limit to the height we can go with steel.
Pros and Cons of the various types of Belay system:
-
PROS
- Good outdoors.
- Can go between trees.
- Excellent throughput capacity.
CONS
- Only allows 1 participant on an element at a time.
-
PROS
- The most durable System for extreme throughput courses (more than 500 users per day 365 days per year).
- There is less distance to fall with the rail system and therefore less impact on the body
- Very smooth gliding action,
- Can be designed to have many participants on 1 element,.
CONS
- Cant be used in trees, as the trees need to move in the wind.
- Usually slightly more expensive due to fabrication costs.
-
PROS
- Most cost effective system
- Most flexible in terms of height changes and splitting the route
- Most flexible in terms of phased developments
CONS
- Requires slightly more explanation for participants.
