A rock sculpted at 2,000 m altitude, a 60 m suspension bridge and a 600 m zip line.
A monolith built at 2,000 metres altitude. Everything was carried in by helicopter. Strikingly realistic, it blends into the nature of the valley.
It connects to a 60-metre suspension bridge, carried by very strong concrete pillars and built to the most demanding standards of safety and certification. The cables are lifelines: no one can fall. The bridge leads on to a classic local walk.
A 600-metre zip line adds a small extra dose of adventure.
