A brand new aerial walkway opened in Verbier at the start of summer 2018. Each of its three courses offers a different level of difficulty, which means guaranteed laughter and thrills for the whole family.

The green course is the easiest one, is suitable for people of all levels and consists of eight challenges and a zipline. The blue course is of medium difficulty and consists of nine challenges, a zipline and several jumps. The red course is difficult and features eleven challenges and seven ziplines. It offers participants the chance to try a “quick jump” of 9 metres with a ripcord (jump begins with a 3.5-metre free fall).
