The Bosc Animat of Catalunya en Miniatura, a social project by Dianova
The ‘Bosc Animat’ high ropes course and leisure park was inaugurated at the end of 2008 in Torrelles de Llobregat (Barcelona), fruit of a cooperation and association
between Dianova International and Catalunya en Miniatura (Miniature Catalonia). This community project uniting both the third sector and the business world offers educational and leisure programs for all the public, while half the profits are destined for Dianova charity projects and activities.
Bosc Animat has also obtained accreditation as a training centre for the Faculty of Physical Activity and Sports Sciences (INEF) for leisure climbing instructors.
