An unforgettable experience offering pure adventure – that's the Flying Fox rope park. Its six circuits range in difficulty to allow you to explore your limits gradually. You'll encounter challenging balancing bridges, Nepalese-style suspension walkways and action-packed zip wires. After receiving a safety briefing, you're free to launch yourself into the adventure. You swing through the air – push off, let go and see what happens! If it's action you want, we recommend the Line 6 circuit with its via ferrata and 90-metre zip wire.
