Children can clamber up ladders, climbing net or climbing wall to access the different levels of the structures, which feature a curvy tube slide and single wave slide. This level also features a 3.2m Timber Seesaw 2 seater and 2-bay Timba Swing, featuring a standard seat and toddler seat.
Fly down the famous metal slide, where the fun and adventure continue with the . With a hand wheel to self-propel rotations, the horizontal net has two seats for an extra level of play while friends can sit, lie or stand on the basket below.
There’s four vandal-resistant seats on the 4-bay Timba Swing, offering a delightful bonding spot for kids and adults.
And if you’re up to more thrills, challenge yourself on the climbing nets, ropes and beams of the Wobbly Wood Twig Stack 355, before flying 30m through the tree tops on the ever-popular Timber Single Traveller.
