Safety
The last few years have seen a sharp rise in the number of ropes courses and adventure parks being built. Individual courses differ from each other in execution, location, products, prices, clients and unfortunately also safety.
In all ropes courses operated by Project Outdoor SAFETY IS THE FIRST PRIORITY!
This primarily entails minimizing objective dangers. That is, danger that the participant cannot influence himself and that occurs due to failure, underestimation or absence of certain components (material, construction, information, etc.). These components should ensure the participant’s safe movement on the elements where there is a risk of falling or serious injury.
