The 1,500-meter pathway meanders through the majestic mixed mountain forest and ends on the platform of the impressive lookout tower at a height of 45 meters. An 80-meter long tunnel slide creates the right amount of tension. All this makes the treetop walk an ideal destination for active visitors, families and seniors. A gastronomic area including souvenir shop and an exhibition in cooperation with the Krkonoše National Park complete the offer.
New and so far unique for eak’s projects: the walkway not only leads up high, but also deep down. Under the ground, in an artificial cave, it offers visitors unique insights into the world of the National Park from below. The project was realized as part of a joint venture.
