CROWN CLIMBING FRAME IN KRONBERG
CONSTRUCTED IN AUGUST 2020

As part of the redevelopment of the Erlebnisniswelt Kronberg adventure world, we recently installed a giant crown-shaped climbing frame in the newly constructed play area. Given the complex shape of the new climbing frame, intensive prior planning was required to create a crown featuring both climbing nets and other fun elements.

In addition to a long freely suspended balancing rope, a monkey bar course with 40 elements and a rope course with 20 ropes with climbing supports, we also installed climbing nets with a total area of around 200 m² in a wide variety of designs.

The new climbing frame was designed and constructed in cooperation with the general contractor pronatour GmbH. We would like to thank Mr Gernot Frank for the excellent teamwork on this truly unique project.

DWARF BRIDGE IN KLOSTERS-SERNEUS
CONSTRUCTED IN JULY 2020

In July 2020, we were commissioned to construct and install a jungle bridge for the popular Zwergenweg (Dwarf Trail) adventure trail for the Swiss municipality of Klosters-Serneus. The freely suspended bridge is 17.30 metres long and offers plenty of fun for young and old alike. The bridge weighing around 500 kg was transported to its final destination via helicopter ready for installation.

The project was completed in cooperation with the Planungsbüro Wegmüller design agency in Klosters and the company Crestageo in Chur.

We would like to thank Mr Wegmüller and Mr Baselgia for the excellent teamwork on this project.
