One of these special events is the Night of the Rope Parks, in which several rope parks in Switzerland participate. The climbing fun with headlamp starts outside the usual opening hours from 18.00 and includes a final get-together with food and drinks. Each participating rope park in Switzerland offers its own program. However, the agony of choice for which ropes course in Switzerland you finally decide is entirely up to you.
