Looking for extra thrills during your climbing forest visit? The bungee and freefall together form the spectacular grey route - a special course for real thrill seekers! Here you can read all about this unique adrenaline attraction, how it works and where you can experience it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the grey route?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The grey route is completely different from other routes! It consists of two spectacular elements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Bungee<\/strong>: Horizontal \u2018bouncing\u2019 through the air<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Free fall<\/strong>: Short fall with controlled descent<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The Bungee<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    How does the bungee climbing forest work? Roughly speaking, you can explain the route as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Climb to the platform first<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Connect the extra carabiner and hook<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Step or jump off the platform<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Fly through the air<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Land in the rope net<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Climb down<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      The Free Fall<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      How does free fall climbing forest work? You can describe the route as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Climb to the platform<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Connect the extra carabiner and hook<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Step off platform<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Experience free fall<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. The system brakes gradually<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      6. Descend gently to the ground<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Who gets to do the grey route?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        The route is not open to everyone. You must be at least 11 years old, at least 1.40m tall and unafraid. If you want to do the grey route, prepare well:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Prepare mentally and think positively<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Listen carefully during extra instruction<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Ask questions if you have any<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Don't dwell too long on the platform<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Have confidence in the security system<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • ENJOY!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Conclusion: ultimate adrenaline rush<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          The bungee and freefall together form the spectacular grey route in the climbing forest, a special course for real thrill seekers! In the bungee, you jump off a platform and bounce horizontally through the air to a rope net. Free fall gives you a short, intense drop with controlled descent. Both parts are safe but give an intense feeling of excitement and freedom. Participation is possible from 11 years and 1.40 metres. Available in Apeldoorn, Bergen op Zoom, Lage Vuursche and Ruurlo. Do you dare the challenge?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
