Urban Altitude - New Urban Playground For Colne - Opens 8th June

Urban Altitude – a unique adventure playground in Colne – opens to the public on Saturday, June 8th.

After months of speculation and leaving motorists driving along Vivary Way wondering, Pendle Leisure Trust can finally reveal the purpose of the giant framework. It is the first of its kind to be built in the UK in an urban town centre location and measuring a massive 42ft.

The outdoor pursuit, situated behind Pendle Leisure Centre, off Crown Way, features a 60metre zip-wire, a Leap of Faith, power-fan, Jacobs Ladder, climbing wall and high and low rope courses built around a main activity tower.

Visitors have to make their way from station to station using a series of aerial ropes and ‘stepping stones’, with qualified instructors assisting them through their ‘journey’.

Urban Altitude is a joint venture between Pendle Leisure Trust and Alliance Leisure and supported by Pendle Borough Council. It will be run by a manager and a team of industry-leading qualified instructors.
