Overview

A low rope traverse strung between angled steel posts. Children shuffle along the rope walkway while moving hand to hand along a row of hanging ropes, building balance, grip and core strength. With a free-fall height of just 1.0 m, grass or turf is a permitted surface, which keeps installation simple on existing grassed sites. The 3.36 m span pairs well with bridges, nets and balance beams to build a longer trim trail for schools and parks. Galvanised, powder-coated steel posts carry steel-core rope with calibrated stainless steel chains. Up to 4 children can cross at once. Certified to BS EN 1176-1 for ages 4–14.
