It's extreme as far as these types of activities go, but it's not quite as dangerous as tightrope walking. The ropes used are flat-shaped and slack: meaning they can bounce up and down and move side-to-side, allowing for more mobility.

Besides hanging out on hammocks suspended hundreds of feet above the gorgeous mountain landscape, the festival also has amenities you'd find in a conventional gathering. It includes a bar, a kitchen, jam sessions, a Yoga workshop, and even tandem paragliding flights.

The first Highline Meeting took place in 2012; it was started by Alessandro d'Emilia and Armin Holzer, who wanted to share the spectacular scenery of Monte Piana with extreme sports professionals and enthusiasts from all over the world.

If you feel like getting your adrenaline pumping with other extreme sports enthusiasts, you can join this year's festival. It's scheduled to start on 2nd September and will last for a full week.

Sign me up for the paragliding, I don't like staying in the same place for too long. If they had ziplining it'd be awesome too.

Bad thing is, I can't afford trips like that (in money terms) :shy:

Ofcourse there is.
But now i think it would suck. You wake up at 3 am to see everything is shaking and hear some guy screaming because that guy slipped from his hammock and is dangling to the rope in the air with safety wire to one of his legs.
