In recent years, the Adventure Parks have become the favorite destinations of schools for their pupils' school trips.
The experience of an Adventure Park is extremely formative for all children of various school ages; they learn to measure themselves with height and consequently to manage their small difficulties; they learn to incite each other to complete the mission: finish the paths and climb the tower !!!
Once in the park what happens? The method used for the "fulfillment of the mission" is based on the relationship of trust that will be created between our AIFOS instructors and the boys.
The instructor will guide them by instructing them and advising them on how to advance on the paths in total safety, suggesting the best method to finish the paths trying to achieve balance.
How does it work?
Students are divided into groups of 20/25 based on height or class they belong to.
First step: dressing by our authorized personnel: harness with lanyard, carabiners and pulley, hygienic balaclava and helmet
Second step: explanation by the instructors on the use of all the components of the harness, namely the Personal Protective Equipment
Third step: practical test on the use of PPE and a small test course.
After carrying out the test, if demonstrated to have perfectly understood the use of PPE to be able to carry out the routes in complete safety, you go on the routes, always and in any case under the watchful and attentive gaze of the instructors.
The time available is max 3 hours, and you can choose to do the activity in the morning or in the afternoon.

Brief notes:
"The museum is located in the splendid Vitelleschi palace, built between 1436 and 1439. The collection, which presents materials from excavations conducted in the area of the ancient Etruscan city and in the vast and rich necropolis, tells us about the life of the Etruscans and of their conception of the afterlife according to which the deceased survives after death. Noteworthy is a rich collection of Etruscan sarcophagi on the ground floor, to which is added to the first floor the sector dedicated to the collections of Greek ceramics, including various masterpieces such as the kylix of Oltos, the vase of Charinos, the amphora of Phintias and the crater of the Berlin Painter. Among the most valuable finds is the famous high relief of winged horses that decorated the pediment of the altar of the Queen, which has now become a symbol of the city of Tarquinia in the world. The only one of its kind is a room on the second floor dedicated to those painted tombs whose pictorial decorations were detached from their natural support in the 1950s. for conservation reasons ".
“The Necropolis of Monterozzi in 2004 was declared a" World Heritage Site "by UNESCO for the presence of an exceptional monumental cycle of painted tombs, defined as" the first page of great Italian painting ". It is the largest of the cemeteries of the ancient Etruscan city of Tarquinia and consists of more than 6,000 underground Etruscan tombs that occupy the whole vast hill of the "Monterozzi". The painted tombs, adorned with figurative scenes including hunters, fishermen, players, dancers, jugglers, athletes, represent the wealth and power of the dead for which they were made: they are the symbol of their high social rank.
The importance of Etruscan painting is also linked to the total loss of Greek painting, of which we can get an idea through the decorations of some exceptional Tarquinian tombs, where in fact it was hypothesized the hand of Greek artists, attracted to Italy to decorate the tombs of the rich Etruscans ".
