And what an adventure it was! It began high up in the treetops, where just a few small, wobbly wooden platforms separated the IHTA colleagues from the distant forest floor. Courageously many parcours were mastered, some of which even included manoeuvring a scooter over a wooden bridge or swinging heroically into a spider-like web. The final section was a platform at lofty heights, with no other way but forward into the depths below. Fortunately, a leap of faith proved that a braking device was in place, ensuring a smooth descent for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>After this, a forest hike seemed like just the thing to calm the nerves and enjoy nature from a more familiar viewpoint. In beautiful sunshine, the walk was made towards the institute, enjoying the soundscape and adding some cheerful chattering to it.<\/p>\n<p>Certainly hungry after all this activity, a great and well-deserved barbecue was enjoyed at the Institute, and let the day come to a peaceful end.<\/p>\n<p>In this spirit, a big thank you to all the IHTA members who were involved in organising this excursion and who made this wonderful day possible.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat:
