Garderen Climbing reservation
In the middle of the Veluwe forests you will find Klimbos Garderen. Klimbos Garderen uses a unique fuse system where everyone is continuously secured. This makes it the safest climbing forest in the Netherlands. You'll also find the highest climbing course in the Netherlands at 25 meters. There are also special courses for toddlers; your climbing goat can climb as young as 4 years old!
Accessibility
In Klimbos Garderen you will find very diverse courses, easy, difficult, high and low. There is a suitable course for everyone. You have 2.5 hours to climb the courses you want. Most courses can be climbed from 1.20 meters, but especially for the little adventurers among us, who have not yet reached this height, there is the Mini ticket. Two tough courses await these little monkeys! Of course, before you start climbing you will get a comprehensive instruction from our instructors. Children under 13 must be accompanied by an adult. An adult (13 years or older) may accompany a maximum of three children. If there are persons who will not be climbing, but would like to watch, they are welcome free of charge.
Courses
The park consists of ten different courses, each with its own theme. Klimbos Garderen offers a fun and sporty day out for different ages and levels. The courses are located at different heights, namely 2, 5 , 7, 10, 12, 18 and 25 meters high. So you can start quietly to eventually reach the top. The level of difficulty varies for each course. Klimbos Garderen is also very suitable for inexperienced and less sporty climbers.

It is advisable to wear comfortable clothing and good footwear, slippers are not allowed. Long hair should be put up.
