Discovery Base Explorer Climbing Frame

The Base Explorer is the first of the Explorer range and has a large 1.7m x 1.7m tower footprint with a 1.5m high deck. This is a much bigger play tower than anything else on the market and so can be used by lots of children at the same time.
The large ‘playhouse’ on the ground floor has excellent head height and once you add onto this the upper deck and fun and challenging selection of Monkey Bars, 2 Swings, Super-fast Wave Slide, and Climbing Wall - this is a climbing frame and playhouse combined! This set provides a whole load of play in a compact system and will provide years of fun for your little ones right up to their mid-teens.
Built by hand in the West Country, the Base Explorer has been designed and built to commercial standards, to ensure a safe and sturdy structure that will last for generations.
The images shown are just examples of the configurations available; we can help to design the system to best fit your garden.
The complete Base Explorer package includes:
- Room to grow - The upstairs platform is 1.7m x 1.7m, which means there’s plenty of room for 4-5 children to play and still safely access the Monkey Bars, Ladder, and Slide.
- Superior height - Generous 1.5m high platform height. This means the ‘den’ on the ground floor is a usable playhouse, unlike many cheaper alternatives which cater more towards the toddler market.
- Monkey Bars/Swing Beam (with two Swings)
- Timber Ramp
- Wave Slide
- Climbing Wall (Resin Stone Rockwall)
- Fire Pole
- Scramble Net
- Internal Seating (one bench)
- Chalkboard
