Among the Trees: Hochseilgarten Familientickets at Rutesheim’s Giant Treetop Park.
Perched in a 30,000‑sqm stand of forest beside the A8 at the Rutesheim exit, the Freizeitpark Rutesheim Waldhochseilgarten is one of the largest high‑ropes parks in Baden‑Württemberg, with hundreds of treetop elements and a layout designed for families, schools and groups.

Outing Highlights
A treetop network of hundreds of elements
The park lays out up to 287 elements across courses that range from low, toddler circuits to high, expert challenges—making it a full‑day treetop playground for mixed‑ability groups.
Easy to reach, built for groups
Located directly at the Rutesheim A8 autobahn exit, the park’s position and range of courses make it a practical destination for families, schools, clubs and corporate groups.
Courses by age and ability
Layouts are tiered: toddler circuits at ankle height, progressively taller and more technical courses from age four upward, and full high‑challenge routes for teens and adults—so families can pick appropriate lines together.

You arrive to a forested grid of platforms and lines; once briefed, families disperse across circuits matched to age and height while others push toward high, technical routes—the operator offers courses that scale from 0.5 m up to 14 m in height and a full range of difficulties so groups can mix easy and demanding experiences with essentially unlimited climbing time.
