Safety at our leisure park near Sarlat — our top priority
SAFETY IN OUR LEISURE PARK
Tree-top Adventure
The Click-It safety system uses a continuous safety line with carabiners — a deliberate choice based on proven and fully mastered equipment for activities at height. The mechanism prevents any risk of complete disconnection by requiring one carabiner to be engaged before the other can be manipulated. Safety is guaranteed at all times through a fully mechanical system with no electronics or batteries, ensuring constant reliability and easy visual checking for operators.
Click-It secures the courses without compromising the activity itself, keeping the movements logical and easy to understand for users. Its design allows children from age 8 to use it — who must be accompanied by a parent in accordance with the park's operating rules. The system mechanically limits handling errors and combines maximum safety, ease of use, and educational consistency, making it a benchmark solution for high-ropes adventure courses.
via ferrata
Designed to provide maximum reliability with minimum handling. It allows users to progress safely throughout the entire route without any risk of accidental disconnection. Thanks to its connection plates and bifurcation cross, it integrates easily into the existing structure while ensuring optimal fluidity.
Fun Box
Our children's areas are fitted with premium safety nets (Agrisport / SPS type), specially designed to provide a play space that is both safe and fun. The nets allow children to climb, jump and move freely while staying protected — even in the event of a fall, the structure absorbs the impact and keeps children safe. It's an ideal environment for younger children, who can play energetically with total confidence.
These installations are designed with families in mind: they provide a visible, reassuring and easy-to-supervise play area where children feel free and parents feel at ease. The nets create a unique play experience that transforms a simple space into a real adventure ground. The result: children play longer and families make the most of their visit.
Big Bag Jump
Jumping on an airbag is a unique, accessible and fully safe experience. Before each jump, a complete briefing is carried out by a stunt professional who explains the correct positions, safety instructions and how to jump properly. Thanks to this guidance, even beginners can take the leap with complete confidence and at a controlled pace.
Our airbag is designed to withstand jumps from up to 10 metres, but to guarantee maximum safety and an experience suitable for everyone, we limit jumps to 6 metres. This allows participants to enjoy the sensation of a high jump without unnecessary risk, in a supervised and perfectly controlled setting.
