Our first commitment.
– Equipment - adjustable climbing harness, light and easily adaptable + safety helmet + 2 lounges.
– Briefing (compulsory, 15 mins) - this mini-course by our security trainer will ensure you know what to do/not
to do on the rope-ways, how to use the safety equipment and how to negotiate elements.
– Panels – In case of any doubt, the panels attached nearby the starting points will be a further help.
– Life Line – you will see a red safety cable above all courses, you will be permanently hooked to it.
– Trained and helpful English speaking staff: arboriculturists for more than 20 years, we are specialized in
the most advanced tree climbing techniques.
At Parco Avventura Il Gigante our staff constantly supervise the courses. In ‘case of need’ we advise or
encourage climbers, or rather help them to get down, in case they should find the course to be more
difficult than expected.
