🌲 How to Choose a Safe Treetop Adventure Park in France or Near Dieppe
If you’re crossing from Newhaven to Dieppe by ferry and planning a holiday full of fresh air and outdoor fun, treetop adventure parks (aerial rope courses) are a great option. But not all parks are created equal.
So how do you make sure you’re climbing into a safe and well-managed park?
At Arb’Aventure, just 10 minutes from the Dieppe ferry terminal, we believe safety and fun go hand in hand. Here’s how to recognize a reliable, certified treetop adventure park in Normandy.
✅ Look for the Qualité Tourisme™ Label
This official French tourism label ensures the park has passed over 250 quality and safety checks, including:
-Annual technical and tree health inspections
-Clean and well-maintained equipment
-Proper safety protocols and trained staff
If a park displays this label, you’re in good hands.
🧩 Real Safety Standards You Should Know
Did you know that by European regulation (EN 15567), every zip line must have 2.5 meters of free space around it?
That’s 1.25 meters on each side — no branches, cables, platforms, or other users — to prevent collisions. It’s not just a detail, it’s a legal and safety requirement.
🎓 School-Approved? Even Better!
If a park is certified to receive school groups, it must meet higher safety requirements:
-A continuous belay system or certified alternative
-Mandatory annual inspections
-Age-appropriate gear and trained supervisors
At Arb’Aventure, we’re proud to meet those criteria — and we welcome hundreds of school groups every year!
🛡️ Not All Insurance Policies Are Equal
Every park must have insurance — but the coverage can vary wildly.
We’ve chosen a robust, transparent insurance policy with high coverage limits and clear guarantees, so you’re protected, no matter what.
🤝 Professional & Transparent
We are proud members of the SLA (Active Leisure Syndicate), a French professional body that ensures parks stay up to date with best practices and evolving standards.
