Skytrex Adventure’s High Ropes Action in Shah Alam Skytrex High Ropes Bukit Cahaya Agricultural Park: Flying Fox over the ‘Moat’!!
Julien Repellin and Azlan Idrus of Skytrex Adventure have created an unusual high elements adventure in the Bukit Cahaya Seri Alam Agricultural Park (Taman Pertanian Shah Alam) located in Shah Alam. This brand new activity revitalises the park’s long forgotten attraction as the Malaysia’s first agricultural park (built 1986) and quite possibly the world’s largest at 1290 hectares.
There are 3 different courses which will have you standing, climbing, walking, swinging and zipping as high as 22meters off the ground! A good point to note is that there are several exit points should you find the challenges too much to handle or if there’s an emergency and you need to get out.
There is now a Barbeque area for guests to use. Bring your own utensils and charcoal. Self clean up is appreciated. Booking is required.
BIG THRILL Duration 1.5 to 2 hours
Requirements: At least 1.4 meters. Maximum weight 100kg.
There are 23 challenges with names like ‘Bermuda Triangle’, ‘Happy Hopper’, ‘Wobble Trouble’ and ‘Wild Revenge’ which you may find humourous, that is, until you stand before them. I kid you not, the trail will sure to serve you that fear factor!
EXTREME CHALLENGE * Estimated to open first quarter 2009. Duration 1.5 to 2 hours
Requirements: At least 1.4 meters. Maximum weight 100kg.
Are you mad enough to do 21 EXTREME challenges? There’s not much else we can say.
LITTLE ADVENTURE Duration 1 hour
Requirements: At least 1.1 meters. Maximum weight 100kg.
A childrens’ course which is lower to the ground. The young ones will develop hand and eye coordination as well, body balance on the trail. Being in an agricultural park, the sights and sounds is a humongous classroom for them, feeding their inquisitive minds on nature’s diversity. All this is provided in a safe environment with a trainer/guide keeping a close eye but not too close, allowing the child to explore his or her own abilities. Parents or Guardians can even follow them! There are 15 Challenges.
