The gigantic Forest Trail attracts children hugely and keep them coming back with its variation of play loops, meeting points and bouncing, balancing activities. The rich variety of balancing, swaying and climb-and-crawl activities are great to help develop children's sense of balance, coordination and proprioception, which is fundamental for building a range of life skills. When playing “the ground is made of lava” on the challenging loops of the Forest Trail, children develop motor skills and muscles, whilst also using and building important social-emotional skills such as turn-taking, empathy, teamworking and communication skills. The bouncy, swaying range of challenging play makes the trail a high retention play event that manages to support children's development through fun play.
Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child “want” or developmentally “need” to undertake the activity and thus gives the play item holding power. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
children train cross-body coordination and muscle strength. The big meshes allow for climbing and crawling through, training proprioception and spatial awareness.
the big meshes allow for more children being seated together, sharing.
agility, balance and coordination when climbing through link, swaying on ropes. Arm, leg and core muscles are strengthened. These are important for posture control and also sitting still.
turn-taking and consideration of others when climbing through. These skills are hard to teach but easy to learn in play.
holding onto the swaying upper rope when balancing on the swaying lower rope makes excellent training of the sense of balance and trunk muscles. These abilities are fundamental for being able to sit still.
there is room for more than one and cooperating with friends on walking over the swaying ropes is a true cooperation task that requires teamwork and tolerance.
the twisted ropes that sway intensely train agility, balance and coordination, the ABCs of motor skills. All major muscles are trained when holding tight to cross the link.
cooperation skills are needed here to cross from both sides simultaneously: concentration on holding tight when crossing calls for precise communication.
the Swaying Seesaw is a challenging training of balance, spatial awareness, and timing: to bounce each other up and down is a balance quest that takes handholds, hence the supportive ropes. The skills trained here are fundamental for instance for navigating traffic safely.
passing others on the bridge intensely trains cooperation and communication skills.
the Flying Carpet bounces gently in the suspended ropes, stimulating children's balance when they climb. The carpet in the middle is a nice point for bouncing up and down.
the center invites seated, lying or jumping breaks, stimulating social interaction.
rope walking is a challenging training of the sense of balance. The gently swaying rope adds to the challenge. When training the sense of balance this way, children also train their concentration skills.

Ropes of UV-stabilized PES rope strands with inner steel cable reinforcement. The polyester yarn is made from +95% post-consumer materials and is inductively melted onto each strand.
Panels of 19mm EcoCore™. EcoCore™ is a highly durable, eco friendly material, which is not only recyclable after use, but also consists of material produced from +95% recycled post consumer material from food packing waste.
Corocord 'S' clamps are used as universal connections in Corocord products. 8mm stainless steel rods with rounded edges are pressed around the ropes with a special hydraulic press, making them the ideal connector: safe, durable and vandalism-proof, all while allowing the typical movement of rope play structures.
Colored steel components have a base of hot dip galvanization and a powder coated top finish. This provides an ultimate corrosion resistance in all climates around the world. Other steel surfaces are hot dip galvanized inside and outside with lead free zinc.
Corocord smart clamps are carefully designed in every detail to ensure superior flexibility in high quality aluminum material. The smart clamps are attached around the posts with four steel bolts. Not used attachment points are closed with PA caps.
Decorative elements (fish-shaped) are made of stainless steel.

The overall framework applied for these factors is the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), which quantifies "environmental information on the life cycle of a product and enables comparisons between products fulfilling the same function" (ISO, 2006). This follows the structure and applies a Life-Cycle Assessment approach to the entire Product stage from raw material through manufacturing (A1-A3).
