Tree Jumaring

Jumaring is a very unusual adventure for climbers. It involves climbing up a rope via Jumars. These Jumars are a kind of clamps attached with a handle that helps in moving freely up a clipped rope and locks down on application of certain downward pressure. This rope exercise is quite popular among children and climbers who enjoy climbing challenges. Tree Jumaring is not offered at all the camp sites and one has to seek for the place that arranges this adventure for the tourists.

This activity needs balancing and focus. It is unlike rock climbing where climbers hike up over the rocks with the help of natural grips, step over edges of the rock and climb using essential equipments. Instead, in Jumaring, the climber uses ascenders as known as Jumars to climb up the webbed ‘ladder’ to reach the tree top. This webbed ladder is used because it facilitates the climber to step up by pulling themselves up on the rope.

The beautiful nature presents picturesque settings around this adventure and present exciting challenge to its travelers. Even children get thrilled watching climbers enacting this unusual activity and wait for their turn to perform tree Jumaring. Generally Jumaring is known as ‘Jugging’ and is used as aid climbing.
