THE TOP TREE ADVENTURE IS SELF-SUPERVISED

 

La-oh Park’s guides will accompany you during the Initiation Sessions in two steps (Briefing  + Training). Once you have completed the Training session successfully, you will be responsible for your own safety during the circuit.

​

A continuous belay system assures the safety of the visitors and eliminate the need for any transfer besides the first one to start the course and the second one to exit the course.  Once connected, the participant’s lanyard is always securely attached to a specific carabineer riding on an unique cable system.

 

The continuous nature of these systems prevents the possibility that the participant will become disconnected from the lifeline while on the ropes course.  As participants move from element to element, the pulley must move over or though some form of a bracket attached to the support structure (pole, tree or column).

 

The user must fasten the safety line at the foot of the access stairs when embarking on a course, and may only be disengaged from the lifeline on returning to the ground at the end of the course.

 

The top tree adventure is totally safe if you follow attentively and constantly our SAFETY RULES AND INTERNAL POLICIES.

Our main wish being to share the fun activities and amazing views that we can experience from the top of the trees. The operators’ training has been made by an OPAH licensed (High Ropes Adventure Course Operator). French experts have brought the know-how, materials and techniques to do this activity safely and with special care for the trees that we climb. All our staff is professionally trained by our operators and is at disposal for any queries.

Our Operators are constantly practicing on all rescue techniques on the trees to face any emergency situation. One first aider, AFPS certificate holder, is available on our site in case of need.
