Robinia Climbing Trails

Playgrounds and natural playground equipment offer essential opportunities for a child’s physical, cognitive, and social development. Obstacle courses turn the point of development inwards, focusing on personal agility, responsiveness, and equilibrium. Developing the inner balance to be able to automatically respond to constant changes in your footing and body position, is among the most vital of motor skills. Basically, through play, transferable skills and dexterities are gained that will hopefully ease the road through life for as long as possible.

The wooden obstacle course, or Robinia Climbing Trails, triggers competitiveness and a sense of achievement with agility being at the forefront. The rich variety of balancing, swaying, and climb-and-crawl activities are great fun and great training in fundamental physical and socio-emotional life skills.

Robinia is an ideal material for our obstacle course for kids as the Robinia tree provides a material that is strong, durable, and will last for years to come. It's why we use it for our pirate ship playgrounds and our commercial wooden climbing nets. Within our obstacle courses, we use a special "Hercules" type rope with galvanized six-stranded steel wires. Each strand is tightly wrapped with PES yarn, which is melted onto each individual strand. The ropes are long-lasting and vandal-resistant.
