Net Parks: Big fun at the highest safety level

The Net Park is a jointly developed product by Thomas Gradl and faszinatour. In close partnership, we combine our respective expertise in concept development, implementation and market development. As a recognised expert and defining figure in the industry, Thomas Gradl has been responsible for key aspects of the product's content and structural development. faszinatour contributes extensive experience in modular concept and implementation frameworks, project management and market positioning, and leads marketing and sales. Together, we have created a product that opens up entirely new target groups – an achievement recognised with the IAPA Innovation Award 2023.

What is a Net Park?

Net Parks are fully netted structures that can be installed as freestanding mast-based constructions or integrated directly into existing trees. The design and theming possibilities are virtually limitless – whether outdoors in natural surroundings or indoors, where netted climbing modules make excellent use of available space. Available as a standalone attraction or as an addition to existing facilities, Net Parks deliver accessible adventure for the whole family – with a particular appeal for younger children.

The Benefits at a Glance

Net Parks certified to playground standards can be operated without supervision and without safety equipment (PPE). Access management is straightforward – a turnstile is all it takes. In an era of staffing shortages and rising operational costs, this is a significant advantage. Add to that short construction times, minimal maintenance requirements and high visitor throughput. Funding opportunities are strong, making Net Parks a sound and future-proof investment.

Types of Net Parks

Net Course

Net Course - fully netted for maximum safety

Net Courses are fully netted climbing modules reminiscent of a high ropes course. Visitors can engage in individual exercises using the 'net safety' without the need for conventional operational equipment (PPE)."

Our Net Parks can be built in accordance with the EN 1176 playground standard or the EN 15567 high ropes course standard.



Net Island

Net Island - enjoying the bouncing fun and making use of open spaces!

Net Islands are so-called 'area nets.' They offer the advantage of uniquely filling unused space, such as under ceilings, between galleries, or even among trees. This construction is particularly suitable for climbing, bouldering, or trampoline halls, but also swimming pools or department stores are conceivable locations. Net Islands complement existing facilities and enhance them by diversifying the leisure offerings. Our Net Islands approach is realized through a trampoline fabric with a collective safety system.

The trampoline fabric solutions earned us the IAPA Innovation Award 2023 at the Vertical Pro trade fair in Friedrichshafen!

Following the leisure trend of 'trampolining,' we developed the product expansion 'Net Island,' which complements high and forest rope parks perfectly. The fabric for these net islands is nearly wear-free and meets all static requirements. Net Islands can be designed in many different forms and combined with additional play options.

Net Trail

Net Trail - discovery trip from tree to tree

Net Trails are 'suspension bridge paths' through the natural tree canopy. Visitors explore the trail from platform to platform on netted bridges - with a focus on discovery. Net Trails are a great addition to adventure parks in trees, children's or adventure playgrounds, and other existing tourism attractions.

Analogous to the well-known treetop paths, Net Trails provide the opportunity to move at height on secure terrain. The installation among trees allows visitors to gain an entirely new perspective on nature.



Net Parks work well in combination with:

Adventure Playground Adventure Playground

Also the little ones want to climb, even if they haven't reached the minimum height required for the climbing park yet. Modeled after the climbing elements for the older ones, here, children can play and have fun at jumping height without the need for an elaborate safety system.
