Adventure park

An adventure park is a place which can contain a wide variety of elements, including but not limited to, rope climbing exercises, obstacle courses, bouldering, rock climbing, target oriented activities, and zip-lines. They are usually intended for recreation.

Forest Aerial Adventure Park

A ropes course can be considered a challenging outdoor personal development and team-building activity.[1][2] Some parks offer both - a recreational section and a team building section.

A canopy tour is a specific type of ziplining where a person is harnessed to a steel cable and propelled by gravity from platform to platform high up in the trees of a thick forest canopy. Although these date back far into history for civil and even scientific uses, they are now used for recreation and have created a new activity for the tourism industry.

Safety systems

The safety equipment for each participant consists of a harness, a lanyard and a belay device.[3] Helmets or gloves can also be used.[4][5]
