The room hums with clipped carabiners and percussive footsteps as participants step into a sky of ropes, platforms and zip lines—the Alps paused just outside the hall's windows. Inside, the course channels alpine movement into a controlled environment: balance beams test steadiness, suspended bridges demand focus, and a final zip warns you the mountains are never far even when the weather keeps you indoors.
