SAYAQ Adventure Tower: Neuer Hochseilgarten im Olympiapark

With the SAYAQ Adventure Tower, Olympiapark has gained a new attraction for everyone who enjoys outdoor activities, adventure and a little thrill. Located right next to the Olympic Stadium, this modern high-ropes course offers climbing fun in the heart of the city – in a setting many Munich residents already know from concerts, festivals and leisurely walks.

The tower, which rises to around 25 metres, features three levels with a variety of climbing elements of different difficulty levels. Rope bridges, nets and challenging obstacles lead visitors step by step higher into the structure. No previous climbing experience is required. After a short safety briefing, beginners and experienced climbers alike can test their skills on the various courses.

Climbing in the Heart of Olympiapark

Unlike traditional forest high-ropes courses, the SAYAQ Adventure Tower stands freely on Hans-Jochen-Vogel-Platz directly beside the Olympic Stadium. The modular structure offers more than 30 climbing stations and provides challenges for different age groups and fitness levels.

Those looking for an extra adrenaline rush can also try a controlled descent from one of the upper levels. Along the way, visitors can enjoy interesting views of Olympiapark, the famous tent roof architecture and the Olympic Stadium, which is currently undergoing renovation.

Perfect for Families, Friends and Groups

The Adventure Tower is particularly well suited for family outings, birthday celebrations, groups of friends and corporate events. Children can participate from the age of six and a minimum height of 125 centimetres when accompanied by an adult. This makes the attraction an appealing option for families with younger children as well.

Another advantage is that accompanying visitors can comfortably watch the action from ground level while climbers make their way through the different sections of the tower.

A Temporary Attraction

The SAYAQ Adventure Tower is a mobile installation that was set up as part of the ongoing renovation of the Olympic Stadium. It is therefore not intended as a permanent attraction. Anyone interested in experiencing this unique high-ropes course should take the opportunity while it is still there.

Conclusion

The SAYAQ Adventure Tower adds a fresh and exciting element to Olympiapark. The combination of climbing adventure, physical activity and an unusual urban setting makes it an attractive destination for families, groups and anyone looking to experience Munich from a different perspective.

MyRadl: Neues Bikesharing-System für München und die Region

Anyone looking for a convenient way to get around Munich by bike now has a new option: Since May 2026, MyRadl has been connecting the Bavarian capital with numerous municipalities throughout the greater Munich region through a regional bike-sharing network.

The system currently includes around 1,000 stations and more than 6,700 bicycles and e-bikes. Bikes can be rented easily via the MyRadl app and returned at any participating station. One of the major advantages is that the network extends beyond Munich’s city limits, making trips between the city and many locations within the MVV region simple and convenient.

MyRadl is particularly useful for covering the “last mile” between train stations, bus stops or underground stations and a final destination. At the same time, it offers an attractive alternative for leisure rides and excursions into the surrounding countryside.

The MyRadl app provides information about available bikes, station locations and pricing. In addition to standard bicycles, many stations also offer e-bikes, making longer distances and hilly routes much more comfortable.

With MyRadl, Munich and the wider MVV region continue to expand their sustainable mobility options. The system makes it easier for commuters, visitors and residents alike to travel flexibly while reducing their environmental impact.
