At a climbing forest, there are clear height and age requirements to climb safely. These rules ensure that everyone can use the climbing equipment properly and reach all obstacles safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Minimum length of climbing forest: 1.20 metres<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You may climb in a climbing forest from 1.20 metres tall and a minimum age of 6 years. This height requirement climbing forest is not arbitrarily chosen, at this height you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Properly operate the climbing equipment and safety equipment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reaching the obstacles and barriers safely<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using the safety cable at the correct height<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Independent climbing under supervision<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Both criteria must be met: so you must be both at least 6 years old and at least 1.20 metres tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Orange routes: climbing from 1.20 metres<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you 1.20 metres tall? Then you may start on the orange climbing routes. These routes are specially designed for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Younger climbers from 6 years<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Smaller visitors just meeting the minimum length<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beginners wishing to learn about the climbing forest<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The orange routes have fuse cables hanging at a lower height. This allows children and smaller climbers to reach the cables easily and use them safely. These junior routes offer real climbing challenges, but are tailored to young adventurers in terms of height and difficulty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Climbing from 1.40 metres: all routes accessible<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>From a height of 1.40 metres, all options open up. You will then have access to the other routes. If you are also over 10 years old, you can also do the free fall and bungee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The regular routes hang higher and are more technically challenging than the orange routes. The height requirement of 1.40 metres ensures that you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Have sufficient range for higher obstacles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have the strength and control for more difficult climbing elements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can use the safety cables at standard height<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why are there height requirements in a climbing forest?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The length restrictions climbing forest are there for several reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Safety<\/strong>: The climbing equipment is designed for certain lengths<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Accessibility<\/strong>: You must be able to reach all obstacles safely<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Operating power<\/strong>: You must be able to operate carabiners and safety systems yourself<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Physical capabilities<\/strong>: Sufficient length provides better balance and control<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>These safety rules length apply to all climbing forests in the Netherlands and conform to international climbing park standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Age and height: both are important<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note that climbing in a climbing forest is subject to both height requirements and age requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>At least 1.20m tall AND at least 6 years old \u2192 orange routes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Minimum 1.40m length \u2192 all regular routes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you old enough but not tall enough yet? Then unfortunately you cannot climb yet. The minimum climbing height is leading for safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Climbing forest for all heights<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This length-graded climbing forest allows everyone to climb at their own level:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Children from 1.20m<\/strong>: safe start on orange routes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Climbers from 1.40m<\/strong>: discover all routes and altitudes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Adults<\/strong>: free choice of all difficulty levels.
