Rope parks are unique places that attract both adults and children. Who among us doesn't like to feel the adrenaline rush sometimes? Parks can usually be found in tourist destinations, city parks or amusement parks. Children love places where they can conquer an obstacle course suspended above the ground, testing their agility and courage. But what if we could create such a rope park in our own backyard?
You dream of its own rope park in the gardenWhere your children can play like Indiana Jones? It's not that difficult! All it takes is a little creativity, a few planks and ropes and your garden will be transformed into a enchanted playground.
Before you go shopping, plan the route of the rope park. Think about what kind of obstacles you want to build - it could be rope bridges, swings, slides or even climbing nets. Make sure the route is suitable for the age and ability of your children.
What is required to create a garden rope park?
Creating a garden rope park is a great way to provide children with a safe, creative space for play and physical activity. In order for such an installation to be functional, safe and attractive, it should include a variety of elements that will provide children with hours of fun and development. Here are the key components to include in your garden rope park design:
Rope climbing for children
Tyrolean in the garden is a must have for any rope park. It consists of several key components, including a strong handle with non-slip material, a stainless steel cable tensioning mechanism, an injection-moulded polyamide housing with a metal insert, and a steel cable. The entire structure has a start and end section. Correctly installing the tyrolean does not require specialist skills, making it easy to use in the garden. By providing children with a rope slide, they will be able to feel like a real adventurer.
Climbing wall
You can build the wall yourself. All you need is a sturdy platform to which you fit climbing stones. It is best to choose those made of organic resin. This will make them weatherproof. If you don't feel up to it and are afraid that the structure as you build it won't meet safety standards, you can buy a ready-made wall from a proven manufacturer.
Swings
Swings will be the perfect addition to any monkey playground. It can be fixed at a height that is not too high, which will give the child the feeling of 'flying in the skies', while also ensuring safety. 'Stork's nest' type swings are ideal for this purpose. Due to the large surface area, up to two children can fit on it.
Rest area
In addition to children's physical activity, it is important for children to have a place to rest and relax after intense play. The stork's nest and hammock are a great addition, allowing children to rest and have a quiet moment after the madness on the ropes and tyrolean.
A rope park in the garden is a huge money saver
It might seem like a costly venture to build a backyard rope park, but it can actually be much more affordable than it seems. The cost of a single entry to a public rope park ranges from a dozen to a few tens of zlotys, which, if you visit frequently with your children, can be a significant strain on your household budget. By erecting your own rope park, you incur a one-off expense that provides daily access to the attraction all year round, and the structure can last for many years. The cost of construction depends on the size of the rope park and the components chosen, but usually ranges from a few hundred zlotys to several thousand zlotys.
A home rope park is therefore an investment that will pay for itself quickly, especially if you frequently use public rope parks or have more than one child. By having your own rope park, you save on the cost of one-off entrances, travel to the park, and you also get the reassurance that your children have a safe and attractive space to play in at all times. Not only does it save money, but it's also a convenience and comfort that both parents and children will appreciate.
