Rope Tunnel Traverse

423-RTT

The Rope Tunnel Traverse is a suspended rope tunnel of interconnected ropes on stainless steel rings. Children climb through, hang from the sides or attempt to traverse the top of the gently swaying ropes, building strength, confidence and spatial awareness with every route they choose.

The stainless steel rings and chain attachments keep the ropes responsive to movement without losing structural integrity – part climbing frame, part net tunnel – so the challenge moves with the child rather than staying rigid. It can stand alone or can connect to other rope play, obstacle courses, forts or other play items.

Handcrafted in our O’Connor WA workshop using locally sourced West Australian Jarrah bush poles (subject to availability), the rope tunnel combines stainless steel rings with weather-resistant ropes in customisable colours, secured with durable metal fittings. The structure is designed in accordance with AS 4685, built for repeated high-traffic use.

VRI installs the Rope Tunnel Traverse across Perth and WA, or supplies it Australia-wide as a supply-only option with installation drawings for your contractor. Talk to us about the Rope Tunnel Traverse for your next playground project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Rope Tunnel Traverse need softfall surfacing?

Yes. The Rope Tunnel Traverse has a free height of fall of 1650mm, and impact-attenuating surfacing is required throughout the designated fall zone.

What age group is the Rope Tunnel Traverse for?

The Rope Tunnel Traverse suits children aged 5 years and over. An enclosed net tunnel gives a crawl route through the middle while the suspended ropes around it can be climbed, so one structure offers two quite different ways through.

Can the Rope Tunnel Traverse be customised?

Yes. Rope colours are customisable to suit your palette. Stainless steel support rings hold the Rope Tunnel Traverse's interconnected ropes on Jarrah bush pole construction, which keeps the tunnel's round profile through constant use by large groups of children.
