5 reasons to come climb in a climbing forest in warm weather

14 May 2024

Summer is upon us and for many people that means feeling like going out and exploring nature. A great way to do that? Visiting a climbing forest! Whether you're an experienced climber or a beginner, climbing in a climbing forest is a great activity to do when it's hot outside. We give you 5 reasons why:

1. Cooling in the trees
When temperatures rise, there is nothing better than cooling off in the shade of the trees. In a climbing forest, you can climb among the branches and enjoy the fresh breeze blowing through the leaves. Ideal for cooling off. If you are looking for even more wind, then you should definitely try a zip line!

2. Active relaxation
Climbing is not only fun, but also a great way to get your body moving. By climbing, you work on your stamina, strength and coordination in a playful way. Afterwards, you feel not only invigorated but also satisfied by the physical effort.

3. Challenge for all ages
Whether you are young or old, climbing is an activity accessible to everyone. There are routes and difficulty levels for all levels, so everyone can push their limits and develop new skills. So climbing is a perfect activity to do together with the whole family.

4. Beautiful nature
Our climbing forests are located in beautiful natural environments, allowing you not only to climb, but also to enjoy the beauty of nature around you. A real treat for the senses. Experience the Veluwe, Achterhoek, Biesbosch, Brabantse Wal and Utrechtse Heuvelrug in a unique way!

5. Social experience
Climbing is not only fun to do individually, but also a great way to meet new people. You can team up with friends, family or even new acquaintances to take on the challenge and encourage each other while climbing. This way, you immediately turn it into a fun social activity.

Whether you are looking for a cool down, an active challenge, time with the family or just a fun way to meet new people - a visit to the climbing forest is definitely worthwhile, even with higher temperatures.

Each of the locations is unique, but one thing they have in common is the beautiful surroundings. 

All our climbing forests are located in real forests, where we do not use climbing poles. This gives you the best climbing experience! We build and maintain the routes ourselves and they are inspected externally for safety. Our staff is trained to give safety instructions and to give you the best experience. A day you will never forget!
