This is an excellent family ropes course in a small, beautiful patch of forest. There are at least seven different courses of increasing stages of difficulty that can easily take several hours to navigate. Kids under 12 can try the first three stages, while the final “black” level is for 12+. All the courses have zip lines and the courses are designed with steel cables and wooden steps/obstacles. The staff members are very helpful and friendly, but it is very much do-it-yourself. They provide harnesses and make sure you wear them correctly, then give you a basic tutorial on how to use the equipment (carabiners and zip lines), then send you off on your own. We did not do the “black” courses but the last stage we did still had us high up in the trees. We had a truly wonderful experience and recommend it for anyone who is looking for fun, athletic outdoor activities and interested in seeing a more intimate side of the Vosges.
One important note: The website unfortunately breaks the ticket process into two disconnected steps: purchase and reservation. You should therefore first reserve your spots (times lots) (separate for each participant), and once that is confirmed buy your ticket. This avoids an outcome where you buy tickets only to find the time slots are full on the day you intend to go. The staff is helpful if you need to telephone for...
Read moreWe were here two years ago and absolutely loved it. Happy to note that nothing has changed, except for a few new activities : the place is managed by a cheerful, motivated group of young adults. Business was a little slow due to the bad weather and we (family of 5) were the only ones there. A quick phone call (in English) prior to the visit let us know that the park would be closing an hour earlier so we went there earlier than planned. The tickets were paid by card and we were quickly briefed on how to move around the park. The 7 obstacle courses were fun and challenging. My 8 yo managed 3 of them with some help, although she had a bit of difficulty on several parts due to her height.(ideally one should be 1.50m with raised arms) The zip line valley was a major highlight, but you need to be at least 12 yo and it’s definitely not for the faint hearted. All in all, I would wholeheartedly recommend the adventure park to families with...
Read moreA good idea for a experience in the nature, group or couple. You will have the chance to experience various tracks with difficulty increasing with each track. I suggest to buy online if you manage, as the system didn't work at the time I've tried. There's a possibility to book places in advance, ao better to do it even if you don't buy tickets from home. I would suggest that company includes more staff to watch for the people doing the trails for safety purposes and fluidity of the tracks. Then for the tyrolians valley, a system to avoid people using the same track would be nice. Yelling from one point to the other side of the track is not the best idea
