MONKEY PARK
HARRACH
“MonkeyPark Harrachov” is situated in the vicinity of the last curve of the Harrachov bobsled track. It offers 14 obstacles, and it is 273 m long. The last two obstacle courses of the rope park lead through the thrilling 117 meter-long slide on a rope over a mountain lake. “MonkeyPark Harrachov” was designed for the wider public, including children whose height is 140 cm or more. It was planned and designed so that even an absolutely untrained tourist or a child of the required height can manage it. Despite that (or maybe because of that), even such visitors will have a wonderful experience.
The attraction of “MonkeyPark Harrachov” rests in gradually conquering obstacles suspended on ropes between trees 3-7 meters above the ground. Special “bases”, on which a visitor may rest, as well as use while moving from one obstacle to another, are secured between individual obstacles on the trees. The park's location directly inside the full-grown forest amplifies the experience. A visitor moves “between sky and earth”, but contrary to artificial rope courses, they spend time amongst nature, below the treetops, and with the bonus of an attractive “flight” over a mountain lake.
Before starting to navigate obstacles in “MonkeyPark Harrachov”, every visitor receives the necessary technical briefing and their movement is always under the supervision of distinctively marked instructors. Everybody is “dressed” in special professional gear, including two belay thimbles, which are permanently attached to the safety rope. Therefore, for the whole duration of climbing through the rope course, a visitor is double-belayed from a fall by high quality equipment. Even if someone cannot manage climbing through the “MonkeyPark Harrachov” for any reason, they can be “lowered” from any place within several minutes by a climb instructor who is permanently present in the area.
There are special safety mattresses on the trees. The used rope has parameters that will exceed the weight of the heaviest visitors. The staff are expertly trained by a certified person. Therefore, visitors of the bobsled track in Špindlerův Mlýn or Harrachov can experience other wonderful adrenaline filled moments in “MonkeyPark Harrachov and Špindlerův Mlýn”.
